Yesterday I was getting a haircut and asked the stylist, “What do you have planned for Easter?” The following is a portion of the conversation which followed:
“A lot. Easter is my favorite holiday.”
“Really. Why is that?”
“Because Easter is the holiday of second chances. It is the holiday when things are made new. I love Easter.”
She then went on tell me about her work in a maximum security prison for women. This Sunday she will be baptizing eight women as part of the prison’s Easter service.
As I reflected on that conversation, I thought it would be great idea to make this week’s Top 10 list focus on Jesus, Good Friday, Easter, the cross and second chances.
