Palm Sunday is this coming Sunday, when we celebrate the beginning of Jesus’ last week on earth with a big parade — the Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. The prophets had told about it hundreds of years before—the King would come into Jerusalem riding on a young donkey. The crowds were all excited, waving branches and putting their coats down as a “red carpet” for Jesus to ride on. They shouted “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord” and other words of praise to Jesus, the Messiah.
We will have real palm branches to wave this Sunday as we celebrate Jesus — and we know much more about Him than the people in Jerusalem did that day. Let’s study together the events that led up to Jesus’ giving up His life on the cross for our sins, and then rising from the dead, just as He had promised!
This is really a good time to bring a friend with you to Sunday School. More people come to church in the Easter season than at any other time of year. We’ll make them welcome and make sure they hear about the Easter story.
