    Christ Is Risen!

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Apr 1, 2021
     | 3,606 views

    Why don't people say "Christ is Risen" on Easter anymore? There is more concern about their Easter parties than on Jesus' resurrection. We cannot allow society to steal Easter from the church like it did with Christmas.

    Easter Sunday 2021 Christ is Risen! Rev. Dr. Michael H. Koplitz (Romans 6:4) It was not that long ago. I remember joining my young family for Easter worship, and I heard people greeting each other in an unfamiliar way. I thought that on Easter, you would greet someone by saying "Happy ...read more
