Easter 5

Revelation 21.1-6

Context

On this fifth Sunday of Easter we move to the end of the Book of Revelation, which will form our study for the remainder of Eastertide.

Common thread – A new place (Revelation 21.1-6)

Location, location, location might be a good way to describe the two final chapters of Revelation. The ROOTS materials this week focus on a new heaven and a new earth, a new Jerusalem where God dwells with his people. We consider what that place might be like.

An alternative thread for adults, Glorious ecumenism, is based on John 13.31-35.

These resources were first published in Issue 47 May/June 2010.
