Dear readers,
Easter is almost here, and I want to take this chance to let you know about a few Easter-related resources you may want to check out.
1. Wycliffe Bible Translators published a fun article describing unique ways this holiday is celebrated in different parts of Africa, Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Maybe you want to try a few!
2. In Discovering Jesus’ Identity on Easter, Christianity Explored suggest that instead of hoping someone grasps the fullness of the gospel in a single church service, who not use your Easter service to invite spiritual seekers into something deeper: a place where they can explore Scriptures and understand for themselves who Jesus is? It may be too late to rewrite that Easter message now, but keep this in mind as a way to follow up with a friend who joins your celebration.
3. Who is Jesus? What did he do? And why do those things matter? George Murray’s booklet Remembering Jesus is simple, straightforward, and cuts to the heart of every person’s most desperate need—Jesus. He is the way, the truth, and the life-giving hope that we all need. Now until Sunday, William Carey Publishing is offering a buy-one, get-one-half-off deal on packages of these booklets.
Happy Easter!
