Easter isn’t about the Cross or the Tomb…Easter is about Jesus
When was the last time Jesus surprised you, or perplexed you, or just made you wonder a bit?When was the last time you were caught up short by Jesus’ message?When was the last time you felt skeptical about the faith?When was the last time the Christian way felt like a victory in your life?
