Jesus the Christ or Bunny?


This Sunday is Easter...this is the single most important holy - day for all Christians. Every year I take this time to reflect...I will take the time to see "The Passion of the Christ" again because its so close to what happened. My heart breaks when I think of His sacrifice just for me...

I know that its popular to do the "Easter-Bunny" thing and I really struggle with this in our churches. I see the billboards and the flyers announcing this great event but why do we have to water down the death of our Christ? Why do we have to make it popular by inviting the masses to come to an egg hunt? I don't know why, because for one the pull really comes from the Holy Spirit anyway and not some program or event. This is not about casting any judgements on any group of believers or their churches really that's not my intention at all. Its just me being a bit melancholy about the true meaning of Easter.

Let's take some time this weekend to just reflect on exactly what our Lord did for humanity as his blood was shed for us on Calvary...
