Question / Issue
I've noticed that the church has gotten away from calling "easter" sunday "resurrection day", as Mark was convicted on several years ago. Is this on purpose?

Answer / Solution
We still refer to Easter as Resurrection Sunday. We've also used the term Easter from time to time this year for the sake of visitors and others outside the church because they immediately recognize what and when that is.  If people don't understand what you're talking about you're not communicating.  It's not possible to define what "Resurrection Sunday" is every time one speaks.  We don't want to fall into the trap of just speaking "Christianese".
