We are at this writing in "Life Transformation Week" with Jeremiah Bolich as our special speaker. The church, generally speaking, has for thousands of years prepared the church body, at this time, for what has come to be known as Easter week, the 17th through the 24th. We in the church commonly refer to Easter as Resurrection Sunday. I like the broader thought of including the entire week and the events leading up to Resurrection Day. We have a running start on Easter with this week, designed to draw us nearer to the likeness of Christ.
The week of April 17-24, is in my opinion the most important celebration in the Church. Jesus revealed His power over sin and the grave. Depraved men tried to destroy the efforts of God to redeem the lost but failed miserably. May we pray for those that we know who are unsaved, as this is a time when people outside the church think of the Son of God and the cross.
