Good Morning !
Today is the day that many in our world are commemorating the resurrection of Jesus Christ. I usually get a number of e-mails from subscribers who wish to set me straight on all the surrounding peripherals that this holiday brings with it (IE: bunnies, eggs, chocolate...you get the picture).
Most of those messages come from people who passionately want others to know the truth about Jesus Christ; His birth, His life, His ministry, His death. I understand, and frankly...bunnies, eggs, and chocolate have nothing to do with those things.
I totally understand.
However, if we have the opportunity to lift up Jesus Christ as the Savior of the world, I believe it is an amazing opportunity to point people in that direction. For many, the Easter holiday is a time of reflection, family togetherness, and love. Perhaps we should embrace those attributes and give as much of that to others as we possibly can.
Christ is RISEN!
I have embedded some online videos on our website that I believe would benefit you (or a family member or friend) on this holiday. You can find the video page here.
May God bless you and yours on this day, and give you peace!
