SUNDAY, APRIL 10, 2022 (Palm Sunday)
Today’s scripture readings for worship are:
Isaiah 50:4-9a
Psalm 118:1-2, 19-29
Matthew 21:1-11
Philippians 2:5-11
Place yourself in the midst of the crowds as Jesus entered Jerusalem. Would you be a curious onlooker, a naysayer, or a palm-waving fan of Jesus?
It is easy to move from the excitement of Palm Sunday to the triumph of Easter morning. And yet, the Passion story lies in between. Why must we bother with the sadness of Jesus’ crucifixion and death? Why not just skip it and move on to the Easter story?
