    Easter 3: We’re still celebrating Jesus’ Resurrection from the dead... and in this Resurrection, Christ offers us a new identity.

    Jeff Foxworthy became famous with jokes based on the line, “You just might be a Redneck IF...” and then he would give you a stereotypical behavioral association.
