If your children were asked what they are celebrating at Easter what do you think they would answer? Many kids will say “Jesus” or “Jesus rose from the dead” but do they know what that means and how that impacts them? Are they excited to celebrate Jesus or are they focused on the candy and Easter egg hunt? 

Christians fall all over the spectrum regarding whether they should call this special day of remembrance Easter or Resurrection Sunday. Some Christians would call others legalistic for not celebrating, while others feel a deep conviction not to celebrate. Join Isaac and Angie as they discuss the possible connection Easter has to a pagan holiday, the unique opportunity that Christians have to use this time to disciple their children in teaching the prophecies from the Old Testament and how Jesus is the fulfillment of those prophecies in a very real and tangible way. This is a call for Christians to recognize the opportunity that we have to “make much of God”, magnify His name, glorify and celebrate Him and what the Savior has done for us all, whether you are teaching holy week significant events using resurrection eggs, or celebrating a messianic passover. 

Isaac and Angie share 4 ways to help keep the focus on the Lord, encouragement for Moms who feel overwhelmed with all the options of ways to celebrate, and share some of their favorite traditions and resources they have used over the past 24 years parenting.
