On the Road
Luke 24:13-34
Tim Badal
This morning I want to focus on Luke 24, the story about two disciples who were leaving Jerusalem on that Easter Sunday, probably later in the morning. After all the events of Good Friday had transpired, they were heading home. So this morning we're going to go on a journey with them. The text in Luke 24 tells us these two men were on their way home on the road to Emmaus. Roads are things we travel each and every day. You traveled roads to get here. We call roads different things. We call them streets, avenues and alleys. Our bigger streets are called highways and interstates. All of them just move us from point A to point B. They take us from where we were to where we're going.
Some roads we know like the back of our hand because we travel on them every day. It might be our commute to work, our commute to school, the drive to our parents' home or our friends' houses. We know every turn, every curve and every speed limit along the way. As a matter of fact, it can almost be boring and we stop seeing things or experiencing the journey.
But there are roads, streets and pathways that are so remarkable for different reasons that we stop and take them in. We experience them.
I did some research this past week in preparing this message, asking what are some of the most famous roads? The first one that came up was Route 66. have you driven Route 66 before, from Chicago to Santa Monica? This is the mother of all roads. This is a road that gives you the American experience. On this road, you can travel back into yesteryear, into the golden age of cars and highways. You will see drive-ins, diners, and yes, even dives. You'll experience the nostalgia of Americana. You'll experience what it was like back in the day, when there were no interstates, when Radiator Springs was booming. Route 66 is a highway many of us will never forget. Sadly, because of interstates, Route 66 has already seen its best days and we're moving on. ...
