Passover for Christians Quotes

“By connecting Passover, Holy Week and Easter, we bridge the Old and New Testaments and can see the overarching theme of God’s redemptive acts on behalf of His people. Passover and Easter – it’s not “either or” it’s “both.”
― Melanie Leach, Passover for Christians: Creating a NEW Easter Tradition

“Passover enables us to pause and observe His death in preparation for Easter Sunday. Good Friday and Easter – or Resurrection Sunday – is the crux of our Christian faith and heritage. However, over time this season has been downgraded in our culture to a “Happy Spring,” “Easter Bunny,” and candy-egg sort of event. While the church still emphasizes Easter (hopefully), Americans in general have lost sight of its true meaning. While these other practices may be harmless, they distract from the very reason for the Easter celebration, which is the bodily resurrection of our Savior, Jesus Christ, the Son of God. It is time to recapture the wonder and rich tradition of this season, beginning with Passover, a purposeful meal around the dinner table.”
