Faith is a living, bold trust in God's grace, so certain of God's favor that it would risk death a thousand times trusting in it. Such confidence and knowledge of God's grace makes you happy, joyful and bold in your relationship to God and all creatures. The Holy Spirit makes this happen through faith. Because of it, you freely, willingly and joyfully do good to everyone, serve everyone, suffer all kinds of things, love and praise the God who has shown you such grace. - Martin Luther

And a funny...


Easter is a time of joy and hope - and in some traditions it is also a time for great humor - playing on the theme that Jesus' death is the greatest joke pulled on the devil, ever. Death thought that death had won. And... not so much.


This story makes me glad - it's goofy and whimsical, and I for one think we could have a little more whimsy in church, most of the time. Enjoy!
