Mark 11:1-11 | The atmosphere in Jerusalem on the day that Jesus rode into the city on a donkey must’ve been electric. The people clamored to fill the sides of the streets, laying down their cloaks and waving palm branches. But at the same time that the crowd expressed their praise and adoration, they were crying out for Jesus to save and deliver them. Today, as we begin this Holy Week, we also offer Christ our adoration and acknowledge our need for God to save us, and to save the world. So as we begin our journey to the cross and empty tomb, join us for worship as we confess our need for God’s help, as we are reminded of God’s unfailing promises – even in the most unlikely places, and as we are sent to listen to the cries of those around us in the world today.
