We were good Hopians and attended our Easter service last night. It felt a little weird, to be honest. However, the service was great and our pastor gave a crystal-clear presentation of the hope that the Christian has. Anyone can worship a great teacher. As Christians we worship a risen Savior. If you go to the tomb of Abraham you will find bones. If you go to the tomb of Mohammed you'll find bones. But when they came to Christ's tomb they couldn't find Him. No one has ever produced a body, even though that's all it would have taken to stop the movement in its tracks. Plus, I can think of no other explanation for the newfound courage of the apostles who were willing to be martyred for Christ. The 9/11 hijackers died for what they believed to be true, but how many men would be willing to die for what they know to be a lie? Certainly not over 12 of them.
On a lighter note, here are the pics.
