Easter is a time to reflect on the values of sacrifice, renewal, and truth. A moment to pause and find strength in the greatest story of hope ever told.

For many, Easter is the heart of everything we believe, built on two big moments: Good Friday and Easter Sunday.

On Good Friday we take a moment to remember the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross. It was the ultimate act of selfless love and bravery. A day to remember the “price” he paid for us.

Easter Sunday is a time of celebration. It’s the Resurrection. It’s victory of light over darkness and life over death. It’s the ultimate proof that no matter how tough things get, a fresh start and a new beginning are always possible through Christ.

During this time, I particularly want to pray for our farmers in Queensland and across Australia. You are the backbone of this country, working the land with a toughness that shows what true faith looks like. We see how hard you work, and we appreciate everything you do to feed our nation.

Easter is about hope and the courage to face challenges head-on. It reminds us that after the sacrifice of Friday, the joy of Sunday is coming. May you find peace, rest, and a renewed spirit this Easter season.

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” — John 1:5

Have a safe, happy, and free Easter.

Transcript

Easter is a time to celebrate Jesus’s resurrection and the joy of Christianity. We live in a time when Christianity is under attack. I spoke of those world events earlier this week. Remember, though, John 10:10, which says: 

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I — Jesus — came that they may have life and have it abundantly. 

Our young are returning to Christianity’s message of hope and joy in God. Our scripture says exactly that in Romans 15:13. It reads: 

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him. 

Christianity is a world free of artificial separations—no cis white privilege. No-one sees your skin colour. No-one carries a diversity card, and the only pronouns are the ones God gave us. It’s the original world of real inclusion—values that characterise One Nation. 

In the past year alone, Bible sales rose 19 per cent, with most of the growth in physical hardcover editions. These are quality bibles being purchased to retain and hand down. In the UK, the Catholic Church recorded a 21 per cent rise in baptisms to their highest level in 11 years. Adult first holy communions increased 44 per cent, and adult sacraments of initiation rose 60 per cent. Baptists recorded the highest baptism rate in 10 years. Fifty-seven per cent of churches are reporting growth averaging 13 per cent. Alpha UK are cross-denominational Christians. They run Welcome to Christianity courses, which grew 35 per cent in 2025, to over 10,000 groups. 

This Easter I invite all Australians to visit their families, make a call that may be months or years overdue, contact a relative who has slipped out of touch and celebrate life and our beautiful country. Happy, safe Easter to everyone.

    Lovely Easter message Malcolm well done.
    I am so saddened at what the labor govt has deliberately done to destroy the fabric of our country. From a wonderful caring country we are being reduced to an anti Semitic one where voices of hate are not only tolerated but encouraged. The voice campaign was another attempt to create 2 classes of people. God Bless . John 🙏

    Thank you Malcolm for speaking out and reminding people what the true meaning of Easter is all about. May God bless you, your family and One Nation. The Bible says. ‘He who honours me I will honour’. Keep speaking the truth.

    Thankyou Malcolm for continuing to work so hard for all Australians. May God Bless You, for not giving up, giving in or compromising the truth and your integrity.
    As Jesus is an example to us, you also show by actions, not just by words, how to live a life of service to others and stand in faithfulness to our loving God.
    May God continue to guide, comfort and strengthen you, in the mighty name of our only Saviour, the Son of God, our mighty Lord Jesus, Amen 🙏
