Resurrection Celebration

The next couple weeks I wanted to post some traditions we do during Easter.  I know it may be too late for you to do some of these this year…

So I will try and post some of the activities and traditions this week so you might have time to do them next week.  And next week I will post some reflections and devotions leading up Easter. 

I am currently reading this great devotional

Jesus, Keep Me Near the Cross: Experiencing the Passion and Power of Easter

With authors like Spurgeon, Luther, Edwards, Owen, Piper, Mahaney, Packer and others… you are sure to be encouraged and challenged to center your devotion on Christ.  Also,each entry is only a couple pages, so it is perfect for the Mama Llama with very little time on her hands.

They also make a great Christmas devotional Come thou Long Expected Jesus.   Other great book options to help focus your heart on the Savior’s Death and Resurrection are:

• The Passion of Jesus Christ: Fifty Reasons Why He Came to Dieby John Piper
• Living the Cross Centered Life: Keeping the Gospel the Main Thing by CJ Mahaney
• The Cross of Christ by John Stott
• Discovering the Power of the Cross of Christ (Christian Living/Classics) (Discovering the Power Series) (Life of Christ Series) by Spurgeon

Check back this week for more ideas on celebrating Easter with your family.
