Happy Easter!

Welcome to our Easter pages. I am so glad to have you visit. Whether you are looking to build meaningful traditions with your family, learn more about the history of Easter and its symbols, or find creative ideas for cooking and crafting, I hope you will be inspired here! Easter marks the celebration of what is arguably the most important event in Christian history – the resurrection of Jesus Christ. The Apostle Paul wrote, “And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith” (1 Corinthians 15:14).

The resurrection of Christ is what gives every believer a “living hope” (1 Peter 1:3) for our own future – that we too will be raised. For this reason, we do not “grieve [about death] like the rest of men, who have no hope” (1 Thessalonians 4:13). Rather, we anxiously await the day that Christ will clothe all believers with new, eternal bodies (1 Corinthians 15:35-58) to live forever with him on a new earth. Note that living as a spirit in heaven after you die is only a temporary state. All believers will one day have a resurrected body on a resurrected earth. Peter writes:

“But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness” (2 Peter 3:13).

Praise God for the hope that is given to us through the resurrection of Jesus! As you celebrate this significant event, my prayer is that our Easter pages will help to deepen your appreciation of what Christ has done for you and for all who put their faith in Him.
