An exercise for the student - or those who won't hear my 'reflection' at the WPCU service on Sunday evening.

Who is/are 'you' - check through Luke 24 and decide who the people were who were told they were witnesses.  How many were there?  What were their names?  Yes!  It's a bit of a trick question, but do it anyway.

What are 'these things' - again read the chapter and decide what they witnessed (saw/heard/experienced).

Now think what it means about diversity and unity, difference and similarity, authenticity and acceptability.

The 'you' is a diverse group, the 'what' is as diverse as they are, the command is as true today as it was then.

So what?  You work it out!
