Easter 2025 Before and After Part #2: Pastor Michel Musacchio

In this powerful Easter message, we're invited to explore the profound story of the Road to Emmaus from Luke 24. This narrative challenges us to recognize Jesus in our everyday lives, even when we're spiritually blind or discouraged. The sermon beautifully illustrates how our expectations, disappointments, and preconceptions can prevent us from seeing Christ walking beside us. Just as the disciples' eyes were opened in the breaking of bread, we're encouraged to seek moments of recognition in our own faith journeys. The message draws fascinating parallels between physical, psychological, and spiritual blindness, reminding us that sometimes our hearts perceive truths before our minds fully grasp them. As we reflect on this, we're called to be attentive to the ways Jesus communicates with us - through conversation, Scripture, sacraments, prophetic insights, and internal stirrings. This Easter, let's not just celebrate the morning resurrection, but also embrace the afternoon walk with our risen Lord.
