Personal Reflections For Pastors On The Lectionary Readings
Luke 24:36b-48

This was, no doubt, also a marvelous time for them as Jesus assured them that he was indeed alive. He invited them to touch him, and he ate some fish as evidence that he was physically present and not a ghost as they first thought.
