Greetings one and all and welcome to the Pastor Mike Drop podcast. It is two days after Easter,

and I am honored, and I know you are too, Emily. My co-host Emily is back. We are honored that

you are joining us today for this conversation.

And it's an important one.

We want to follow up on Easter by focusing in on the evidence for the resurrection.

But before we do, Emily, welcome back.

I missed seeing you in person here for the podcast.

I missed being here in person.

My goodness.

So how was Easter for you and your family?

It was really good, you know, obviously different, but different in some good ways too, you know.

Yeah, it is. Did the kids dress up still? Did you worship? How did it go? Oh, yes. Of course.

Did you go to church?

Yes, we did, pastor.

Yeah, my kids dressed up still in their little dresses.

They got to get their little microphone and guitar and stand in front and worship as a church family.

And there's something really sad about not being together, but really cool to think about all

the thousands of places that people

were still doing that.

Yeah, we discovered that too.

Turns out early numbers are pointing to, and this is just conservative estimates so far,

way more people than ever worship together as a church called Hope yesterday.
