The Biden Administration has disrespected Christianity on one of the most sacred holidays in all of history, calling Easter or Resurrection Day, Trans Day of Visibility in honor of transgenderism. This should be no surprise to us since he has done it the past three years. By now, it is more than clear that the act is intentional. For Christians, it means we need to stand strong in our faith and refuse to celebrate what the culture is celebrating. Jesus is our Lord and King, and his resurrection has profound significance for us and for the world. We must understand that significance and share it with those around us so that they too can know him and become members of the kingdom of God. So, today in this special episode, on this holiest of days, I will dive into the resurrection story in the hopes of connecting it to the larger picture of the Bible to explain why it is the most important event in all of history for everybody everywhere.
