This Easter Friday, it's been an interesting day in reflecting on how so much in life can change in an instant. The floods that have been affecting Auckland to a lesser extent and has caused a state of emergency in various areas with with flooding and slips in other parts of NZ was unexpected a month ago.

Yesterday, some Universities closed as did some schools, Early childhood centres and even some jobs called for workers to go home early to avoid the mad rush hour as commuters tried to get home whilst others wanted to travel away for the Easter long weekend.

There were lines for public transport as many rushed home and the weather has been quite erratic with beautiful sunshine for some hours followed by pounding rain. It certainly is not the time to be driving for long hours as all I'd rather be doing is staying home with a book, paints or to catch up on sleep.

I'm also, this Easter, looking forward to watching the above movie called "The case for Christ" in which a journalist wants to know once and for all the truth about Jesus Christ or even Christianity which I hope to be taking my family to watch when it comes out.

Early this year, I watched an interview of the author, Lee Strobel and his wife, who talked about his struggle of making sense of his wife's conversion to Christianity especially when he felt quite threatened by seeing the changes in her and he wanted to get to the bottom of it to show her that her faith was based on a hoax.

I'm looking forward to watching this movie as it might answer a lot of the questions that I have asked over the years in my faith and as many people do in solidifying and even questioning whether it is a faith worth dying for as did it's founder, Jesus Christ, some 2000+ years ago.

I think it will be an interesting film for believers, non-believers, skeptics, atheists, agnostics, people of other religions or no religions to watch as to what is at the foundation of Christianity and in what Christians believe. I know that it was also be a movie worth talking about whether or not you believe...
