Easter changes everything (Fr. James Martin)

   
Easter changed everything for the followers of Jesus.   

   I’ve always loved thinking about how, after Easter Sunday, the disciples’ abject fear turns into gobsmacked amazement and then into lasting courage.  You could say that this is one of the most inadvertent proofs of the Resurrection:  the otherwise inexplicable transformation of the disciples.

   You need something dramatic to change people like that.
