It happens every holiday. Months and months in advance, the retail shelves steer our attention to what’s coming next. Christmas decor is available before Halloween even hits the shelves. January 1 hits and Valentine’s Day is all the rage until February 15, when the candy is half price and Easter bunnies take over. There is more to prepping for a holiday than there is candy and gifts. At Easter, we’re not leaning into a holiday. We’re honoring a Holy Day. Ultimately, one springtime Sunday won’t matter unless the remainder of the year is spent seeking and serving Christ.

Easter is the “Super Bowl” of church life and our chance to follow Christ’s command to “remember” His death & resurrection. Husbands, fathers, leaders and men: we need to prepare for Easter by preparing our hearts to know and share Jesus. This podcast edition of MLN offers practical wisdom and devotional insight to help men make the most of Easter. Tune in as Jeff Simmons, Lead Pastor of Rolling Hills, chats with Family Pastor Chase Baker and Discipleship Pastor Nic Allen about what Easter is and what it means to be ready.
