In this Easter season, Rev Richard Carter from St Martin-in-the-Fields, reflects on how, in difficult times, we can find signs of hope and resurrection in a wounded world.
Spring brings quiet signs of renewal, even as the world feels overwhelming and hope can seem in short supply. In this season, filled with the joy of Easter and the promise of the resurrection, Rev Richard Carter, Associate Vicar for Mission of St Martin-in-the-Fields, reflects on how, in difficult times, we can find signs of hope and resurrection in a wounded world. - the lengthening days, new growth, and simple acts of kindness. Drawing on stories from his work with those on the margins of society, he shares moments of struggle and resilience, pain and hidden grace, showing that hope does not ignore life’s challenges, but emerges gently within them, like spring itself.
