But we can make choices on where we look that can give us a more accurate picture and bring hope.

Para ele, a ressurreição vai além da dimensão eterna, é um acontecimento que impacta o cotidiano cristão. Com seu estilo acolhedor e sua mensagem clara, Peterson reexamina as narrativas da ressurreição presentes nos Evangelhos e sugere disciplinas espirituais capazes de revigorar a fé, independentemente das circunstâncias em que estejamos inseridos.
