St. Aidan's Anglican Church, Kansas City - Weekly Talks

Palm Sunday reflects on the fickleness of our human condition. So quickly, blessing and cursing come out of our mouths (James 3:10). The crowds' response, once praising Jesus with royal palms and messianic acclamations, suddenly turned to curses: "Crucify Him." The public humiliation of Jesus was too much to swallow. This cannot be the expected one, humble and non-violent. Certainly, his throne is not a crucifix? Such is the human condition that Jesus came to heal and restore. The image and likeness of the Father is on display throughout this week. Walk with Jesus to his Cross, burial, and resurrection, a bodily resurrection from the dead.
