Eggs, Chickens, Bunnies and Buns



As a secular European style nation, NZ reflects little interest in Easter other than for holiday purposes. The meaning has been diverted to small symbols aimed mostly at children and the benefits are eagerly sought by bread and confectionary manufacturers and retailers.

An Easter Dilemma


How do we portray the crucifixion? I asked myself this question while searching online for ideas to reflect Easter on our billboard. The Holy Spirit gave the words “ask Him why...” now I needed an image that amplified that challenge.
