Just my imagination ...

Now, for those who may not know, Easter is the season when it is remembered that God Almighty raised his Son, Jesus, from the dead. With that in mind ...

There is one Easter Sunday Scripture text where I imagine it being preached in a cemetery for an Easter sunrise service. The cemetery I picture is one surrounded by woods so the pre-sunrise moments are even darker. And as the Sunrise service is about to begin the preacher comes out of the woods wearing a white robe, and then the preacher shouts out in the center of the cemetery with hands and arms outstretched into a cross position (shaped like a "T"):

"Mortal, can these bones live?"

(Ezekiel 37:3a)

Easter says, "They sure can because God raised his only Son, Jesus, from the dead. Such is the crazy hope that Christians have ... if God can raise his Son from the dead then there is hope for even us, even all, even me."
