Easter Sunday. He is Alive!!

As I sit here in Church and think of the last few days and the journey of Christ from Palm Sunday to the glorious Easter morn it is humbling, but, also as I look at the World and especially at The United States two thousand years later I feel nothing but sadness.

Why? The news is devoted to anger and hate. This is a time where the Church, the Church of Christ, The Church of Acts should be stepping up and teach love and grace and not hate and fear? Even if they something is wrong where does hate and judgement come in to it? We are all sinner, living in a fallen world. This is what the Passion week is all about. Everyone are sinners and Christ died for everyone who believes. We are so preoccupied with arguing and judging others when we should be working on the fixing the major issues that in this Century and even more so in this Country criminal: hunger, poverty, sickness and greed for starters. Let's get back to the Church of Acts and perhaps the Church with a clear conscience following Christ, not, money we can really make an impact in this world.
