REASONS TO CELEBRATE EASTER
We already celebrate Jesus raising from the grave the other 51 Sundays in the year.
What makes this one day so special?
- You look amazing in pastel colors.
- Peeps are readily available to drop in coffee or hot cocoa.
- Flowers are starting to bloom.
- Cadbury Creme Eggs.
- The excitement of full-contact toddler Easter egg hunts.
- Even though you don't know what it is, "Passion Play" sounds like it could be exciting.
- You love wearing bunny suits, but are afraid of what people will say the rest of the year.
- Anything that starts with "Good Friday" has got to be worth celebrating.
- The church only advertises breakfast one Sunday a year, so you take advantage of it.
- Your parents let you wear hats to church.
- Sermon is shorter due to extra special songs being sung.
- The object lessons make sense. (empty egg = empty tomb, new born chick = new life in Christ)
- It is the single most amazing event in human history.
I know there are dozens of more reasons to celebrate Easter and you can add to this list. (Especially since it's fresh on your mind.)
