Easter!
Easter is a great day!
Think about some of those crazy symbols of Easter our culture has come up with, and celebrate!
The Easter eggs are a sign of new life, celebrating Jesus' resurrection from death, which brought new life for us. It wasn't enough for Easter eggs to be their natural white or brown---this is a celebration! There ought to be a profusion of color. And it wasn't enough to just use the eggs hard-boiled, until they cracked; plastic Easter eggs let the celebration continue.
Rabbits have become a big Easter symbol. What other animal proliferates and brings new life like rabbits? I like the chocolate ones, for new life in Christ is sweet.
In line with that same theme, marshmallow rabbits and chicks ("peeps") are especially sweet. They may not be the best for your teeth, but, HEY, this is a great holiday---loosen up!
The egg hunts are great---seeking new life, right? And besides, Jesus was known for always seeking the lost (as we also should be known).
Use every device you can to tell the good news of our risen Savor!
