Happy Easter Everyone!


Carry the joy of the resurrection with you throughout the year.
In John 20:15~
When Jesus finds Mary Magdalene crying at the door of the tomb and says to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" In that moment, Jesus isn't asking a rhetorical question. He wants to know why we worry and sob and fret when hope is underneath everything, if we could just tap into it. Easter is about liberation. The celebration of the resurrection is a chance for us to say, "Yes, Jesus, I believe," and in so doing, grab the hope that is already there.

The resurrection gives my life meaning and direction and the opportunity to start over no matter what my circumstances.

Mary was one cool lady. The first and last apostle, really. Thanks for this. Wishing you a blessed Easter!

Easter is a time to remind us that the Jesus we worship is alive. He is not in the manger and not on the cross. He is at the right hand of God on our behalf.

Jesus is alive!

Have a blessed Easter!
