The resurrection of Jesus proclaims that our normal world-order is turned upside down.

The powerful are brought low, and Love - God's Love, in all the vulnerability and weakness displayed in Jesus' death - is shown to be the key to life instead.

God calls us by name to live in and by this love. Nothing else matters.
