Roll Back Sinners
Are you saved brothers and sisters? Well, are ya? Do you know what that means? Do you honestly want to go another day playing dice with your eternal salvation? No, you don’t.
Put your hands on the computer screen. Go ahead. Do it. Take a deep breath and say, “I am pond scum. I deserve to go to h-e-double hockey sticks! Please save me, oh, great church going atheist!” And if you want, add, “Help me Obi Wan Kenobi. You are my only hope.” But don’t you worry about sending me any money. “Because the God I believe in isn’t short of cash, mister.”
Ok. You see, I’m jaded. All this week, everywhere I go, church signs, church folks, you name it…they are pushing Easter.
Tonight, outside of Target stood a man handing out Easter Eggs with candy inside and a note asking me to attend Easter service with them. That was a new one for me.
I understand the resurrection story is a central theme in Christianity. Easter is the Superbowl of the Christian calendar. And this week certainly does have the feeling of a big game.
just wanted to drop a short note: i don’t know if you realize it or not, but what you are experiencing has alot to do with your culture and with traditions. if you were in another culture and wouldn’t be exposed to some of the stuff that some churches do and say, you might not be so turned off…
