You’re here because you love hearing Tom Wright’s insights on Ask NT Wright Anything. In this special Easter Monday episode—available free on our new subscriber-only feed—Mike Bird and Tom Wright go beyond the empty tomb to explore the bold, world-shaping implications of the resurrection. What does Easter really mean for the mission of the Church today? Is resurrection just about life after death—or something far bigger?
Mike asks how Easter reshapes the Church’s mission today. Tom reflects on a Holy Week sermon in Jerusalem in 1989—focused on heaven, but missing the power of new creation now.
From ancient Jerusalem to today’s conflicts, they explore how the resurrection calls Christians to justice, beauty, evangelism—and above all, hope. Jesus rises not to help us escape the world, but to redeem it.
Rooted in John 20, the Great Commission, and Psalm 2, this episode offers a bold vision of the Church as a living sign of God’s new creation.
