    Family Easter dinner on Palm Sunday and a Waster w Family Easter dinner on Palm Sunday and a Waster waffle bar on Silent Saturday. I’m so grateful for my amazing family! No pictures of the 10 church services! But it’s been a busy, transformative, and powerful week! #easter #resurrection #jesus
    CS Lewis on God's great love: "God, who needs noth CS Lewis on God's great love: "God, who needs nothing, loves into existence wholly superfluous creatures in order that He may love and perfect them. He creates the universe, already foreseeing - or should we say 'seeing'? there are no tenses in God - the buzzing cloud of flies about the cross, the flayed back pressed against the uneven stake, the nails driven through the mesial nerves, the repeated incipient suffocation as the body droops, the repeated torture of back and arms as it is time after time, for breath's sake, hitched up. If I may dare the biological image, God is 'host' who deliberately creates His own parasites; causes us to be that we may exploit and 'take advantage of' Him. Herein is love. This is the diagram of Love Himself, the inventor of all loves."Happy Good Friday! Let us be somber in its grief, rejoicing in its ultimate triumph, and grateful for the cost! Enjoy the meaning of Christ's sacrifice--Sunday's coming!#easter #resurrection #salvation #cross #jesus #paymentforsins #goodfriday #crucifixion #atonement #reconciliation #godslove
