This past Sunday was Jubilate Sunday–the Third Sunday after Easter. We heard in the Gospel lesson these words of our Lord: “A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me, because I go to the Father” (John 16:16). Jesus spoke this to the disciples in the upper room right before His arrest and crucifixion, and, in the context, these words refer to His death and burial (you will not see me) and His resurrection (you will see me). However, they also have something to say to us about the current time, when we don’t see Christ, and what we have to look forward to. Listen to the sermon for more.
