主播:Emma(中国)+ Erin(美国) 音乐:Traveling Light今天是端午节,祝大家端午安康。我们今天聊的话题就跟端午节相关。01. The Origin of Dragon Boat Festival 端午节的由来The origin story is actually really touching. 古时候有位爱国诗人叫屈原,他心怀国家,却被坏人陷害。在五月初五这天,伤心的他跳入汨罗江(mì luó jiāng)中。后来老百姓们为了不让鱼虾伤害屈原,人们把米团扔进江里。久而久之,每年的五月初五就成了端午节。So this festival was established to commemorate(纪念) Qu Yuan. And zongzi literally came from an act of love for a poet(诗人).02. Common Activities During the Dragon Boat Festival 端午节的常见活动Eat zongzi 吃粽子Zongzi is glutinous rice(糯米) packed with fillings(馅料) and wrapped(包裹) in leaves, then steamed(蒸煮). 粽子可以包非常多种馅(a lot of fillings)。The filling is really abundant(丰富的).南方:咸粽子:猪肉粽、蛋黄粽、火腿粽北方:甜粽子:红枣(red dates)粽、豆沙(red bean paste)粽有的人还会用粽子蘸白糖或者蜂蜜。每年端午节,网上都会掀起甜咸粽子之争,这跟美国的the pineapple-on-pizza debate有些相似。The dragon boat races 赛龙舟这个活动在南方可能会更流行一些。Wearing five-color rope bracelets 带五彩绳Hanging scented sachets (/sæˈʃeɪz/) 挂香囊香囊(sachets)里面会放一些香草和中药材,有些香囊还可以帮助驱蚊(mosquito repellent)。Hanging mugwort at the front door 在门口挂艾草It's interesting that holidays can have their own smells. 闻到艾草的味道,很多中国人就知道端午节要到了。03. Why is 端午节called the Dragon Boat Festival instead of the Zongzi Festival? 为什么端午节叫Dragon Boat Festival不叫Zongzi festival?The short answer is:赛龙舟很盛大,具有国际影响力。People see that as a symbol(象征) of the holiday. Dragon boat racing is huge, dramatic(激动人心的) and international(国际影响力的).从1976年开始,赛龙舟就变成一项国际运动了。Hong Kong started hosting big international races, and then it spread internationally. 04. Chinese Traditional Festivals vs. Western Traditional Festivals 中西方传统节日对比It seems like every Chinese holiday eventually becomes about food. 但其实,中国人过节吃的不仅是食物本身,更重要的是在这些食物当中蕴含的祝福和寓意。The food actually seems to mean something.Chinese New Year has dumplings. 新年吃饺子。因为饺子的形状很像古代的元宝,寓意着富有(wealth)。The Lantern Festival has tangyuan. 元宵节我们会吃汤圆。Dragon Boat Festival has zongzi. 端午节吃粽子。For commemorating(纪念) Qu Yuan.Mid-Autumn Festival has mooncakes. 中秋节会吃月饼。因为月饼是圆的,象征团圆。It's like you're eating a wish for your family to be together.So every food carries a story.��那么,西方的每个节日也会有特定的饮食吗?The answer is not quite. The closest example is probably Thanksgiving and turkey.在感恩节(Thanksgiving Day)这天大家会会吃火鸡(the turkey)。但相比于食物,western holidays are often more focused on activities(活动) and celebrations(庆祝方式). Easter 复活节在复活节期间,相比于吃Easter eggs(复活节彩蛋),人们更喜欢去找Easter eggs。Christmas 圣诞节人们更注重的是gifts(礼物),Christmas trees(圣诞树)和Santa Claus(圣诞老人)。Western holidays are definitely more driven by what to do on those days than what to eat.所以相比之下,中国节日更强调“吃什么”,西方节日更注重活动和庆祝方式。But whether it's sharing food or sharing experiences, it's really all about bringing people together(使人们团聚).
In this Easter message, we explore how the resurrection of Jesus is the turning point of all creation. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture reveals how sin fractured our relationships, filled the world with shame and fear, and set creation itself off course. But through the cross and the empty tomb, Jesus begins restoring what was broken—healing our relationship with God, repairing our relationships with one another, and bringing hope to a hurting world. The resurrection is not just about life after death; it is about new life beginning now as God's kingdom breaks into our present reality. Because Jesus rose from the dead, Easter changes everything.
This Easter Sunday, we celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ together as a church, and we explore what the meaning of Easter is. Looking at the story of the Gospel and different characters in Scripture, we see the invitation that Jesus has for us this Easter.
Easter is not only a time to reflect on what happened to Jesus, but what can happen to you. This Easter 2026, Pastor Greg Laurie shares a message for anyone who has failed, fallen, or feels like they've gone too far. From John 21, we look at Simon Peter, who denied Jesus, yet was personally restored by Him. — Become a Harvest Partner today and join us in knowing God and making Him known through media and large-scale evangelism, our mission of over 30 years.

In this powerful Easter message, Chad Veach declares that Easter is more than a moment—it's a shout from heaven. Preaching from Mark 16, he explains that the resurrection isn't just about a stone being rolled away, but a message being released over every life: it's not over. What looked like the end—the cross, the tomb, the silence—was actually the beginning of something greater. Easter reminds us that God is still writing our story, and no failure, mistake, or setback has the final word. Pastor Chad emphasizes that you are not disqualified. Through the grace of Jesus, what we could never earn has already been given. Using examples from Scripture and real life, he reminds us that even when we fail, God never says “I'm done with you”—He says, “I'm not finished with you.” The resurrection proves that grace is greater than our worst moments, and because of Jesus, we are still eligible for God's best. Ultimately, the message reveals a God who relentlessly pursues us and invites us to start again. Just like Peter, who denied Jesus but was still called back, God continues to meet us right where we are. Every morning brings new mercy, and Easter is the ultimate reminder that no matter how far we've fallen, we can rise again. Heaven is shouting: it's not over, you're not disqualified, God is still pursuing you, and you can start again

Good Friday and Easter are the celebration of most important act throughout all of history. This is a bold claim, but nothing in history is more significant than the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. The far-reaching, eternal implications of what Jesus did for us have ripples in the past leading up to Christ's coming through the prophecies of the Old Testament. The historical event of the cross and the resurrection have ripples into the future, even into eternity!, as we look forward to the restoration of God's perfect creation where His people will be with him in a perfect relationship forever. And all of this is accomplished through the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This is an eternal hope that is securely guaranteed through the life-changing, history-making, act of Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection from the grave! This sermon celebrates the resurrection of Jesus by looking at "The Hope of Easter."

The number of rival stories to the Gospel are legion. You are confronted with a host of competing salvation stories. All of these rival stories are powerless to save. Their allure is found in their escapist fantasy. Escape from responsibility. Escape from consequences. Escape from accountability. Christ's Resurrection is the true story of restoration, true salvation, and life.
Why did Jesus have to die? Why is the resurrection such a big deal?
It's no secret that Christians believe Jesus rose from the dead. What if you saw this happen with your own eyes? This Easter, we will view the resurrection through the eyewitnesses to this event: Jesus' disciples. Join us this Easter to celebrate and discover the undeniable truth of our risen King.Let us know you're here!

Message from Rev. Dr. John Yates III on March 31, 2024
The Christianity movement was kicked off by the resurrection. Before that moment, nobody was expecting Jesus to die. There was no hope. There was no Christian faith. And if you find yourself doubting, you are in good company. The resurrection of Jesus breaks all categories and that is why we celebrate.
More broken than we know, more loved than we can comprehend. Welcome to the weekly sermon podcast of Grace Church Bellingham.
