Evening: Psalms 23, 27; Matthew 28:11-20
Denial doesn’t want to believe. Denialism denies truth – climate change, the Holocaust – creating another ‘truth’. The chief priests pay the soldiers to say Jesus’ resurrection is a hoax – that’s denialism. But the disciples see Jesus, who tells them to spread his Way of Love. Faith trusts experience – love, relationship, and story. Believers are not in denial any more than unbelievers. Faith just responds to a different kind of truth. No-one can prove that love, relationship, or story, are untrue; Faith cannot prove they are. Faith can only tell about the experience of Love. You believe that or you don’t.
