Preacher's Pondering 

Our text for Bible Study this week: Preacher's Pondering: 
​
It’s Palm Sunday this week! How do you recognize it? I can’t help but look at our processionals, the fronds we wave, the shouts of Hosanna and realize that for us in our 21st century lenses, Palm Sunday has become an almost pre-Easter. Jesus enters the city gates like a Roman general would enter a conquered city or Rome. Palm Sunday is the literal beginning of the end Jesus’ life. A life that ends here on earth at the hands of sinners. Us. A death that paves way for the ultimate gift that we received on that first Easter. But, beloveds, we still have a long week ahead. Pain, grief, agony awaits us. Bear that in mind. Hold that reminder in tension with that fact that we are also a people firmly planted in the resurrection promise. Join us on Sunday we recognize Jesus’ triumphant entry into Jerusalem as our King. Be well, dear ones.

Found with you, in Christ,
