This post offers visual resources for the Revised Common Lectionary and the Narrative Lectionary for April 23, 2023. This is the second Sunday after Easter. The Narrative Lectionary jumps into Acts and takes us all the way to the story of Peter and Cornelius. The RCL continues in in Peter’s speech in Acts 2 and a mini-series on 1 Peter.
