Is Easter in the Bible? The Truth About Acts 12:4 and Passover

To some Easter weekend is a time for painted eggs, chocolate bunnies, and fine meals with family. For others, the weekend is a time to remember the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, linked with the Passover.
I can’t say anyone has ever asked me if I’m hosting an Easter egg hunt, but I have been asked almost every year about our services for Good Friday and Easter Sunday. I am not into painted eggs and chocolate bunnies, nor am I into observing religious holidays which the Bible says nothing about.
