Hope degenerates fast. Someone has to keep it afloat.

Matt Skinner reflects on the road to Emmaus in Luke 24:13–35, reminding preachers that hope doesn’t sustain itself. Cleopas and his companion needed their eyes reopened, and so do the people in your pews this Third Sunday of Easter.

Watch the full reflection before you preach this Sunday.
