Sunday Readings and Backgrounds

Fourth Sunday of Easter

Reading I : Acts 4:8-12

Jesus has become our cornerstone!

  • The reading from the Acts of the Apostles follows the story of the arrest of Peter and John and includes Peter's speech to the authorities who are interrogating them.
  • Peter restates the basic truth of the resurrection: Death is conquered and life won through the death and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth.
  • The authorities release Peter and John, who immediately return to preaching the good news.
