Pastor's Message

Easter Clothes show an Easter Heart

It’s time to think about Easter clothes! What is in fashion this year? I would suggest this:

WWJW- What would Jesus wear Instead of wrapping ourselves in costly, starchy grave clothes, a church full of Easter hearts wears blue jeans. An Easter heart church is a blue jeans church. It lives its faith in everyday, working day clothes: clothes that are tough and sturdy and made to get dirty. In fact, jeans get softer and better the more they are worn and washed. In point of fact, the best jeans of all are ripped at the knee, and the blue is creased and whitened by years of use. I think Jesus would like us to be wearing jeans, tee shirts and walking shoes as a sign we are ready to work. ready to get messy helping others and ready to follow. Jesus left his grave clothes behind and put on his work clothes. On Easter morning the great surprise is that sacrifice was not the end of Jesus’ mission. Out of Jesus’ broken heart there emerged a new heart, a resurrected heart, an unbreakable, unstoppable heart. Out of the Last Adam’s split side a new Eve was con-ceived, the bride of Christ, the church, whose life revolves around the water of baptism and the blood of communion. On Easter “It is finished” becomes “Now it begins.” See you at the empty tomb! +Pastor Ken
