Why seek the living among the dead?

Having come to the end of the Easter weekend, and having delivered many sermons / talks / meditations during the course of that weekend, it is refreshing to read Peter Leithart's Easter Homily for this year, and be fed and encouraged from the Scriptures for myself.

"Why do you seek the living among the dead?", the angel said to the first witnesses. It's a funny place to look - and yet, in many ways, it's where we often look too. Have a read.
