Journey to the Cross: Day 40

Welcome to Palm Sunday. This is the Sunday before Easter and we call it Palm Sunday because the Sunday before Jesus rose from the dead, he rode through the streets of Jerusalem on a donkey and people proclaimed him king by waiving palm branches.

Palm Sunday is also the start of the Passion Week. Passion week is the last week of Jesus's life before he died. This final week of "Journey to the Cross," we will walking with Jesus through his last days. We're getting closer and closer to His death.

As we embark in the last stretch of our journey, why don't you take the time to watch this video about Jesus and his time here on earth. This will get us oriented and on the same track to experience Jesus for the rest of the week.
