They readily assign Jesus a distinct place in the hall of fame, but more ground they cannot cede. Jesus never came on a heroic mission – to find space in the human gallery of gallants and stalwarts.

In this kenotic mindset, Jesus set a great example during that Passion Week and first Easter. That’s the spirit of Easter; and in that spirit – Happy Easter.
