RESURRECTING EASTER : MEDITATIONS FOR THE GREAT 50 DAYS by KATE MOOREHEAD

Kate Moorehead provides devotional resources for the forgotten post- Easter season. Short daily readings offer more seasonally-appropriate material for those accustomed to a Lenten practice. American Christians have forgotten the Easter season. We celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus on one day and then return to ordinary time. But Christ appeared over and over again for forty days in resurrected form. We cannot sustain this resurrection season because that kind of sustained joy overwhelms us. This book is designed to help us sustain Easter. KATE MOOREHEAD is an Episcopal priest and mother of two. She has been an active leader in Gathering the NeXt Generation, a grassroots movement among Generation X clergy and lay leaders in the Episcopal Church. She is currently the rector of St. James Church in Wichita, Kansas.
