Palm Sunday

This Sunday is Palm Sunday, the day Christians celebrate Jesus' arrival in Jerusalem to celebrate the Passover with His disciples. As He arrived in the city, crowds met Jesus, shouting and cheering. Days later, Jesus would be arrested, beaten, and crucified. And crowds would shout for His death, just as they'd shouted and celebrated His arrival.

We urge you to prepare for Palm Sunday by reading the accounts of Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. Scripture sometimes refers to this as the "Triumphal Entry." So check out Matthew 12:2-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke 19:28-38; and John 12:12-19. Ask God to help you learn something new from these familiar verses.
