Easter 2025: Brave messages for hope in difficult times!

In her Easter message, Kirsten Fehrs, the Council President of the Evangelical Church in Germany (EKD), calls on to spread the message of Easter confidence. It emphasizes the importance of passing on this good news to people who have no direct connection to the Christian religion. Fehrs explains that sharing positive stories of the successful life, against the background of the current crises and wars, can be a powerful inspiration.

Fehrs expresses that the good news from the resurrection takes time to arrive in the hearts of people. She speaks of the disturbing pictures in the media and the pain of orphans in Israel and Palestine. She is supported in her call by Kristina Kühnbaum-Schmidt, the state bishop of the Nordkirche, which calls for respect, consideration and cohesion. It emphasizes that true confidence does not depend on material possessions, but on respect, trust and love.

Easter message as a source of hope

Nora Steen, bishop in the Sprengel Schleswig and Holstein, also describes the Easter message as a source of confidence and courage in uncertain times. Hamburg's archbishop Stefan Heße calls on the believers to pass on the light of the resurrection as a sign of hope. He emphasizes that Easter is a gift from God and that it is important to bring this light into the darkness of other people.

The Easter joy that is highlighted in the message recognizes pain and death in the world and has the ability to give people new courage to live. It encourages the beauty of creation and the invaluable dignity appreciated. The view of hope should be focused on the changes that are possible in the world, and the division of the power of hope is considered particularly necessary, as ekd.de.

This message also emphasizes that new courage to live can arise from grief. The Easter message promotes the rich of hands instead of concentrated fists and encourages not to be afraid of life. The current challenges require a shared power of hope, which is borne by the good news and stories of the successful life, as [welt.de] (https://www.welt.de/regionales/mecklenburg-vorpommern/article25597208/bischoefin-fehrs-tdt-die-guten-nachrichten.
