In one week since Easter 2014, have more than one million people globally experienced the power of resurrected Jesus in life transforming redemption? What happened to those who encountered Him, the resurrected Jesus, in that first week? Is it happening to me? Why or why not? What difference did it make in their world? Is it happening in my world? Why or why not?

No weekend in human history is more significant than Easter. The events of this weekend - the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus Christ - are unique in all history. The impact of that first Easter on human history is unsurpassed. The number of people whose lives have been transformed by the risen Jesus Christ is incalculable. How do you describe the importance of Easter in your life story?

In every aspect of life all of us have experienced disappointing "down times." Learning to "REBOUND" from those dark times is essential in life. Learning to "REBOUND" with God's direct involvement is one secret to building a legacy of living life to the FULL!

These next four weeks form the most strategic spiritual time of the year globally for the human race. The battle for humanity's soul has raged with ferocity for millennia and it reaches its zenith of intensity as Passover/Easter approaches. The dark kingdom is determined to tighten its choke hold on us; Jesus Christ is determined to bring His rescue. How will this battle be fought in America, in Wisconsin, in Walworth County, in each of our homes, families and individual lives? Where COULD we be Easter 2014?

Today we join with the rescued Hebrew slaves of Exodus as they brought their offerings to build the "Tent of Meeting." We join with King David and his people as they brought their offerings to build the Great Temple in Jerusalem. We join with millions who have gone before us, including those of Calvary 45 years ago, who brought their offerings to build and renovate facilities all over the world for God's people to gather and draw those who don't yet know Jesus for life-changing encounters with God! This is our "INGATHERING Celebration." May God be glorified and Jesus be delighted!

Popular opinion says, "Live large, life is short." Jesus said, "I have come that you might have life to the full." What's the difference between them? Which is ultimately satisfying? Which makes a greater difference in our world? How am I living life?

Is your heart near to God? What are the things that rob joy from your heart? What things draw your heart from God? What are the steps we can take to keep our hearts close to God? "You will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart. I will be found by you, declares the LORD." Jeremiah 29:12-14a

"Stand at the crossroads and look. Ask for the ancient path, ask where the good way is and walk in it, and you will find rest for your soul..." (Jeremiah 6:16) This weekend is history making for Calvary Community Church. We Celebrate our past and present, while Embracing God's future for us. As with all churches, Calvary is a unique God story. Our location and facility are aging miracles of God's provision. God's future for us requires a significant facility "makeover." At the crossroads of opportunity, God is ready to lead us forward in fulfillment of His Purposes for us in our county, country, and world. Are we ready to follow Him courageously for significant spiritual impact in future generations?

"Today" is important. It builds on all my yesterdays and links me to all my tomorrows. "Today" is an important part of my Legacy. "Today" links me to people and purposes that extend far beyond what I can see or ever fully know. "Today" is vital from an eternal perspective... for me and all those my life touches today. What if, every day for the rest of my life, I lived TODAY to its fullest potential?
