An Easter Conversation

March 17, 2009

Easter is April 12 and I'm so excited! Why is Easter such a big deal? Is it just something that happened 2000 years ago? Was Easter only for me or should it make a difference through me?

Too many times we only think of Easter as something God did for us. While He has indeed given Christ for us as the greatest gift ever through His death, burial, and resurrection, God wants Easter to come alive through us as well. Everything Jesus did for us, He wants to do through us.

This is my challenge to you this Easter: CHANGE!

Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
Romans 12:2 (NLT)

Change the way you think - about those you know who need a life changing relationship with Christ.

Just remember this for today: Easter is for us and its effect is to be seen through us. God wants to use you to impact the lives of others. Join us here for this important conversation as we catch God's wave and build momentum toward Easter during the next five weeks.
