Song for a King | Palm Sunday

Palm Sunday celebrates Jesus entry into Jerusalem; the crowds greet him with shouts of hosanna and palm branches as they would for a King returning in triumph from war. But Palm Sunday's shifts from celebration to confrontation as Jesus overturns tables of money changers and vendors at the temple and has a harsh word for religious leaders. What's going on here? How are these events connected? Palm Sunday reveals deep truths about Jesus' identity as the Messiah; truths that challenged the disciples, the people of Jerusalem, the religious leaders and truths that continue to challenge us today.
