A Dream Gone Bad Series

Contributed by Terry Blankenship on Jun 4, 2008

Stony The Road We Trod:

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Apr 12, 2022

Jesus’ “going up” to Jerusalem is a public event, interpreted by Luke as a royal entry.

It is that “slash” day again—as in Palm/Passion Sunday—as in trying to capture two seemingly distinct moods and experiences in one act of worship. It is almost impossible to do, it seems. If we lean toward the Palm Sunday experience and emphasize the exuberance of the triumphal entry into ...read more
