The lesson this morning was from Matthew 4, Jesus' calling of the four disciples. Upon hearing from the teacher that Jesus still calls us today, one of the girls responded, "I thought he was dead!"
"No," I responded immediately, "he was dead but he came back from the dead - he's alive today."
The young one scrunched up her face in surprise as the teacher joined in my affirmation.
We have some work to do in our CE program, clearly. But I wonder if we would all do well to sometimes be at least a little surprised by the resurrection?
