About this SERIES

Christ the Lord is Risen today! Alleluia!

As we celebrate Easter, center your family on this collection of questions surrounding the theme: “Jesus is Lord.”

The Book of Confessions PC(USA) reports: “At the heart of all confessions is the earliest confession of the New Testament church, ‘Jesus is Lord.’ Strictly speaking therefore, Christians confess not what but in whom they believe.” *

If this is true, then the particular questions in this guide, which specifically highlight Jesus’ Lordship, are among the most important for us to understand as Christians. If we see Jesus as Lord, then that challenges us to think about the entire world differently.

In later weeks we will cover different aspects of Jesus: both Jesus as servant and Jesus as Son. But if we can understand that Jesus is Lord first, then that will make his sonship and servanthood even more incredible.

So, over the next several weeks, we invite you to sit with these questions (these books, these songs, these activities) and ask the deeper question of how we can show with our lives that Jesus is Lord.
