Tell the Whole World
“I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.“Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting?” The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain. 1 Corinthians 15:50-58 (NIV)
For those of us who have a personal relationship with Jesus, the Easter season is time with so much to celebrate. Our greatest responsibility as Christians is to share the good news and to tell the whole world that Jesus was crucified, buried, and rose again. 
One of my treasured memories of my childhood is getting my “Easter dress” and going to Friendship Baptist Church in Boligee. It was there that I learned of the sacrifice that was made for me and the blessings it brings. So because another person shared with me on Easter Sunday over 30 years ago in a little town called Boligee, a seed was planted that changed my life.
