Laura Eriksson - “Palm Sunday: Stories Inside the Story”
Sermon Recording: Download
TOPIC
On Palm Sunday, Laura Eriksson explored some of the stories inside the story of Jesus' triumphal entry on a donkey into Jerusalem as told in Matthew 21. All of us have distinct memories of special occasions that are evoked by the garments we wore at the time. In the crowd, people of differing perspectives on who Jesus really was all came together to praise him: followers, skeptics, and the many who had been blessed by his healing touch. Laura's calligraphy bookmark features the word Aletheia – truth or disclosure in Ancient Greek philosophy – to remind us that Jesus chose that point in his ministry to reveal himself as the Messiah by fulfilling a key prophecy.
