Summary
Episode 945 | Adriel Sanchez and Bill Maier answer caller questions.
Questions in this Episode
1. Why do we still use the name "Easter" instead of Resurrection Day, and why don't Christians celebrate the biblical feast days today?
2. What does the Apostle's Creed mean when it says Jesus "descended into hell"?
3. What does Ecclesiastes 3 mean when it says that God "put eternity into man's heart"?
4. I'm raising young kids and I wonder how I can help them distinguish between the truth of the miracle of the resurrection and fairytales that they also read about every day?
5. Is there anything special I should be doing to prepare for Easter?
