"For God so loved the world, that he gave His only Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
The Easter Season is the second-longest liturgical season. Only ordinary time is longer.
There are 50 days of Easter from the first Sunday to Pentecost. It is characterized, above all, by the joy of glorified life and the victory over death expressed most fully in the great resounding cry of the Christian: Alleluia! All faith flows from faith in the resurrection: "If Christ has not been raised, then empty is our preaching; empty, too, is your faith." (1 Cor 15:14)
