It is an old, old story. The original is paraphrased below.
“While walking to Emmaus one day a stranger joined my friend and me for the journey. He talked like a Priest. He sure knew the Scriptures well. Then again? He also talked like a Prophet. He talked about how God’s Anointed One, whom we call the Messiah, is revealed within the writings of the Prophets and in the Psalms of David. It was not until we sat to eat and the stranger broke the bread that my friend and I realized who that stranger really was. ” Do you know who?
Maybe this Sunday, especially if you go to church, you will also learn some more about this stranger! If you come to Bridgeport United Methodist Church (10:00 am) you might even find out about other walks by other persons; even ones which I have been on. I will try and make those stories also seem interesting.
