When Simon Peter arrived after him, he went into the tomb and saw the burial cloths there, and the cloth that had covered his head, not with the burial cloths but rolled up in a separate place. Then the other disciple also went in, the one who had arrived at the tomb first, and he saw and believed.

The apostles and the people of the infant Church were called that because of the way that they lived their lives. The experi-ence of the Resurrection of the Lord changed their lives. It was an experience that transformed them. Contrast Peter, for example, as he cowardly denied even knowing Jesus during the Pas-sion with Peter as he boldly proclaimed the risen Lord at Pentecost. He is transformed by the Easter experience and emboldened with the power of the Holy Spirit. The transformation of those early Christians, and in fact the world, is one of the anchor points of my faith.<br \/>Without the Resurrection the Cross would not have been a victory but a defeat. We have the vantage point of looking back at the Cross through the lens of the empty tomb. The victory has been won. The passion, death and resurrection of Jesus not only changed the apostles, but it changed the world forever. The question for each of us is, \u201cWill we allow the power of the Pas-chal Mystery to change us?\u201d<br \/>Sacred Scripture is full of images of flowing water as a powerful symbol of God\u2019s love pour-ing upon the world. I have used the image of Niagara Falls in past homilies. During the Tridu-um the symbol is ever present. It begins on Holy Thursday with the pouring of water on the feet of the disciples. Upon the Cross on Good Friday blood and water flowed from the pierced side of Jesus. On Holy Saturday the waters of baptism flow from the font of Christ\u2019s Church.<br \/>During the Last Supper Peter was refusing to allow Jesus to wash his feet. Jesus said to him, \u201cIf I do not wash you, you will have no inheritance with Me.\u201d (Jn 13:8) In other words, unless you allow me to wash you, you will not share the gift of eternal life. John the Baptist pro-claimed Jesus as the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. However, because of the gift of free will, we must allow Him to take away our sins. We must allow Him to wash us clean. We must accept the gift of His love. Unless we allow Him to wash our feet we will have no inheritance with Him.<br \/>Nearly two thousand years have come and gone since that first Easter. It is the event that changed the world, changed the course of human history. The question is, \u201cWill we allow it to change each one of us?\u201d Like the Cross, Easter must become personal for each one of us. Like St. Peter and the apostles, we should be changed by the Easter experience and empowered by the Spirit of the Risen Lord. We are still the Easter People, the People of the Resurrection.

I spent the first few days at St. Peter\u2019s Basilica and the Vatican Museum. I first knelt at the Tomb of St. Peter for several hours feeling incredibly connected to Christ and to His Church. From there I branched out visiting the numerous churches in Rome.<br \/>One day I was visiting Santa Maria sopra Minerva church, and I discovered a lesser-known statue by the famous artist Michelangelo. It is entitled The Risen Christ and is located just to left of the main altar. I was instantly captivated by the statue.<br \/>I think all too often we see in art very effeminate renderings of Jesus in paintings and in statu-ary. This is not my image of Jesus. I have always pictured Jesus as a very strong and rugged man. As a carpenter working with his hands in his father\u2019s shop, he would have naturally devel-oped a pronounced muscle tone. Certainly, the renderings taken from the Shroud of Turin cap-ture the ruggedness of Jesus. In the movie The Passion of the Christ the actor Jim Caviezel cap-tures my image of Jesus as a strong and powerful man.<br \/>With The Risen Christ Michelangelo captures a strikingly powerful image of Jesus. He is por-trayed as an extremely muscular man. With his rippling biceps and powerful thighs, with His well-developed chest and well-defined abdominal muscles He looks like a powerful highly trained athlete. His body bears the nail marks in his hands and in his feet. He is holding the cross slightly behind him in his right hand. The cross is small in comparison; it could not have held the person who was now holding it. In His left-hand the Risen Lord is holding His shepherd\u2019s staff.<br \/>What captivates me the most is the face of Jesus. As Jesus was journeying to Jerusalem to take up His Cross, we are told that His face was set like flint. He was resolutely focused on the task for which He came into the world. Now the Risen Lord with staff in hand is discarding the Cross and His face is looking forward, set like flint on the new world and the mission that lies ahead. The Risen Lord is now the Good Shepherd who is seeking us out and leading us forward into the fullness of life, life eternal. A new power has been unleashed on the world. It is the power of the Resurrection.<br \/>One of the anchor points of my faith is the power of the Resurrection. It is a power that would change the world forever. The apostles are the first to be transformed by their experience of the Risen Lord. With the experience of the empty tomb, the Resurrection appearances of Jesus, the Ascension of Jesus, and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost the infant Church spreads like a wildfire. This rapid transformation of the world witnesses to the power of the Resurrection and the Holy Spirit working anew.<br \/>Easter is more than a holiday that we celebrate or the great event that we commemorate: It is a way of life, a way of living. We now live our lives empowered by the Resurrection and guided by the Holy Spirit. Two thousand years have come and gone, and we are still the Easter People, the People of the Resurrection. People today need to see in us what was visible in the apostles, the face of the Risen Lord, a face set like fling on the mission at hand, the spreading of the Good News. He is Risen. Happy Easter!<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-588 aligncenter\" title=\"\"

Glenn is clearly very spiritual, and that comes through in all of his homilies and reflections.\u00a0 His spirituality is not aloof, or inaccessible.\u00a0 His holiness is authentic, grounded, accessible and on fire.\u00a0 And, that fire is shared, such that the listener also becomes on fire, and inspired to go deeper with Scripture, with God and with our neighbor.\u00a0 Fr. Glenn has inspired me to engage at the deepest level and to work to find my spiritual path, always encouraging, mentoring, coaching.\u00a0 I would strongly encourage anyone who can to attend one of his Masses, homilies, or podcasts.\u00a0 Catch the fire of the Holy Spirit working through Fr.

His homilies are instructive, encouraging and centered on God\u2019s infinite love for each of us. Fr.
