He is risen indeed. Alleluia!

According to recent statistics, 81% of adults in America plan to celebrate Easter this year. In addition, those who celebrate will spend an average of $175 per person on things like Easter clothes, groceries, candy, decorations, and more. 

But even more important than celebrating with family and friends or participating in 

Easter egg hunts are all the outcomes and upshots that flow from Calvary’s cross and the empty tomb. Because our crucified Savior rose from the dead, we are fully forgiven; our lives have profound purpose; all of Jesus’ promises are true; and those who die in faith will live the way Jesus lives. They will enter into the heavenly joy of their Master forever! Christ is risen. He is risen indeed. Alleluia!
