My favourite Easter quote

Since the resurrection really happened, then no situation and no person are hopeless. No marriage is beyond repair, no child beyond recovery, no pagan beyond the reach of the gospel, no sin beyond forgiveness, no womb permanently sealed; no one and nothing are beyond restoration…          if bodily death is reversible, so are all the other little deaths that we suffer in life…  [In Christ] hope is not a delusion, but the driving power of abundant life.

– Peter Leithart (in the context of this joyous meditation on the resurrection)
