Palm Sunday
The image of Jesus hanging on the cross is one of the most iconic images world-wide. But what not many people realize is that this was set in motion by one of the most striking religious and political spectacles of all time. We’ve come to refer to that spectacle as “Palm Sunday”. What is Palm Sunday, and how did a crowd of palm-branch-waving Jesus fans seal the fate of one of the most iconic figure in human history? And what does this story reveal about the true identity of Jesus, and why He was eventually executed? And if we properly understood what happened on the first Palm Sunday, how would it change everything for us today?
