Maybe not as sarcastically and flippantly as the writer of the article, but the truth is, every Christian must define why Easter is important-why it is relevant-why it matters.<BR/><BR/>It is important to include the discussion of faith matters in conversation with the people we spend our daily lives with. It is important for Christians to be public about the parameters of their faith.<BR/><BR/>My Lenten schedule is not just filled with obligations and responsibilities, but it is also filled with spiritual moments of prayer, meditation, refreshing connection with God.<BR/><BR/>A shake up and a wake up - that's what that article sounds like. It appears to be a challenge to have believers be persuasive about the faith they hold so dear.<BR/><BR/>Celebrate and embrace this Easter, the love story of God in the Resurrection of Christ Jesus. It is an amazing treasure, the holy mystery of it all - Christ in you, the hope of glory.<BR/><BR/>Praise God from whom all blessings flowjsihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13365839524389378815noreply@blogger.com
