I apologize to my sunday school teachers if I didn't hear you right, but I don't remember being taught about the resurrection as the future of God's people. I remember hearing about going to heaven where we'll all get to fly around, but I never heard about life after 'life after death.' I don't hear too much talk these days in the church about the hope of resurrection, and it seems to affirm my suspicions that it was never taught to me. I am convinced that much of faith in Jesus absolutely depends on resurrection--Jesus' resurrection and ours. I think that there must be a great deal of re-thinking (repenting) by the church regarding our hopes for the future and its implications for the present. One more way that the church needs to be converted again...
