Dedicated to cruelty free living through a vegan lifestyle.
Vegan Pastor Frank Hoffman answers this weeks’ question by sharing the history of a Pagan Holiday, called Ester, which was created to worship the Pagan god of fertility. Because eggs and rabbits are commonly associated with fertility and new life, these symbols became associated with what many of us now refer to as Easter. But Pastor Frank reminds us that Easter is not an accurate Christian holiday, but rather a commercial holiday celebrated with gifts and foods that have nothing to do with Jesus’ resurrection from the dead. To truly celebrate Jesus’ Resurrection Day, we must rise from our own personal deaths of a sinful life and choose to live in God’s heavenly will.
