Pastor Matt's Blogosphere

According to The Barna Group's article "Spirituality May Be Hot in America, But 76 Million Adults Never Attend Church," many people that rarely or never attend church will be present on Easter Sunday. While Barna and his group goes into a discussion about the demographics and other issues (some of which pertain to our discussion), what do you believe is the main reason people come to church on Easter? Why will they come to church on Easter and not Christmas? Is this more of a family reunion than a religious occasion, or do people sense a real need to be present in church on Sunday? Please comment and give me your thoughts. Also, give feedback on how you think we truly can reach people around this Easter season.
