Title: The VICTORY of Palm Sunday

5 Tell Daughter Zion, "See, your King is coming to you, gentle, and mounted on a donkey, and on a colt, the foal of a donkey."
6 The disciples went and did just as Jesus directed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt; then they laid their clothes on them, and he sat on them. 8 A very large crowd spread their clothes on the road; others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them on the road. 9 Then the crowds who went ahead of him and those who followed shouted:

Hosanna in the highest heaven!
10 When he entered Jerusalem, the whole city was in an uproar, saying, "Who is this?" 11 The crowds were saying, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazareth in Galilee."
Today is known as Palm Sunday. We know it as the beginning of the week that led to the cross. But 2,000 years ago, Palm Sunday was described by all four gospel writers as a day of celebration and anticipation. It was a day where thousands of people lined the streets leading into Jerusalem...
This scene, described in Scripture, sort of reminds me of my first experience with the VOL walk... We traveled to Knoxville... parked our car somewhere in Egypt... then we walked a couple miles and found our spot. We lined up along the street, hours in advance, alongside thousands of people... music was playing... and all the people were eating food and drinking and celebrating... They ...
