I know what you mean, op. I sometimes feel like Christmas and Easter are amateur hour for those who do not normally show up, so, no, I do not get much out of it.![]()

The best Easter Service of my life was a sunrise service, just up the road a piece from Charleston. The sun peeked over the water full of Cypress knees and really made you feel the glory of His rising. I haven't thought of that day in years but it was really on my mind today. Maybe by next year I'll have come up with a rational explanation for the kids of why I want to have church at our boat slip!
