The church is bright with flowers and all the songs are full of hallelujahs. But as she repeats the joyful words, \u003ci\u003eChrist is Risen\u003c\/i\u003e, secretly she wonders, \"What does Easter have to do with me?\"\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eRise: A Child's Guide to Eastertide\u003c\/i\u003e follows a child through the fifty days of Easter, as she shares in family and community celebrations, hears stories of the Risen Jesus, notices how the world around her is coming alive again, and ponders how growth and new beginnings are part of her own life. \u003ci\u003eRise\u003c\/i\u003e is the fourth book in the \"Circle of Wonder: Liturgical Year Resource Set.\" \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Out of this wondering comes a new way of seeing. Easter is not just about what happened to Jesus long ago. It is about change and transformation here and now. When we let go of things--even our own mistakes; when we look for Jesus and find him in new places; when we fall and get up again; when we share a feast; when we love--that is Easter. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Resurrection is a big word. \u003cbr\u003e It means rise again. \u003cbr\u003e I used to think it was a word \u003cbr\u003e only for what happened to Jesus. \u003cbr\u003e But now I'm not so sure. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Sometimes we trip and fall. \u003cbr\u003e But falling does not have to be \u003cbr\u003e the end of the story. \u003cbr\u003e Peter did something bad \u003cbr\u003e because he was scared. \u003cbr\u003e But Jesus let him try again. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e I like how Jesus feeds his friends, \u003cbr\u003e even if they didn't really deserve it. \u003cbr\u003e I like how he gives Peter another chance \u003cbr\u003e to show what he can do. \u003cbr\u003e Maybe Jesus could see \u003cbr\u003e that Peter was much more \u003cbr\u003e than the mistake he made. \u003cbr\u003e Maybe this is resurrection too. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Laura Alary\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Paraclete Press (MA)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/14\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Circle of Wonder\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.80h x 8.40w x 0.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781640608887","brand":"Paraclete Press (MA)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43311323807881,"sku":"9781640608887","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_95128a7b-1bc9-4f4b-8a9b-ca9451272438.jpg?v=1738052296","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/rise-a-childs-guide-to-eastertide-part-of-the-circle-of-wonder-series-9781640608887","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
