What Does Celebrating Easter Say About You?
Brother Bob: If you're celebrating Easter, you're probably one of three types of people. You may be like the first: you're fully aware of everything about Easter, you're aware of the origins of the Easter holiday, and, for you, it's really nothing that you're too concerned about.
