This is a continuation of the text we read last week in Luke 24. The two disciples Jesus met on the road to Emmaus were present with the others in Jerusalem when Jesus appeared, as we read last week in Luke 24:36. I almost titled this sermon “Back from Emmaus” or some such to emphasize that fact but felt like that was trying too hard.
Below is an image of the horseshoe puzzle mentioned in the introduction, and the FedEx logo which was printed on the back of the bulletin. Listen to the sermon if you need those to make sense. (Both are illustrations of the Holy Spirit leading us into understanding.)
This is not an endorsement of FedEx, just a reminder that anything can be a sermon illustration.

“The road to Emmaus is a two way street.” Or perhaps “The road to Emmaus runs both ways.” I need to remember these quotes next year.
