There are a ton of questions out there about Easter and whether Christians should celebrate it. And here’s the thing. While there are a lot of internet myths and conspiracy theories about Easter’s pagan and historical origins (which we address in this episode), there are also some legitimate concerns we need to look at. And we don’t want to throw the baby out with the bathwater. So, let's take a level-headed, biblical look at this holiday. And this video is intended to be a helpful resource so we’re going to cover a lot of ground, from pagan myths to Constantine to whether it’s appropriate for Christians to celebrate Easter today.
