May the Lord be with you and bless you today.
Every Sunday Is Easter
Joe Holland: “Easter Sunday has always been a big deal, from my earliest unconverted memories to my recent pastor labors. I cherish those memories and my current family traditions. But I now know that all that expectancy was misplaced—like a young engaged couple that spends countless hours preparing for a wedding and not marriage.”

Wes Bredenhof offers a vivid real-life illustration of what sin does to us.

We are to find as much bitterness in weeping for sin, as ever we found sweetness in committing it.
—Thomas Watson
