Jesus: Prophet, Priest & King
Matthew 21:1-17
Teacher: Pastor Jim Thomas
Date: March 29, 2026

Why do Christians observe Palm Sunday? What was the significance of Jesus riding into Jerusalem on a donkey and all those people waving palms and covering the road with their coats? Why is that first Palm Sunday often called the “Triumphal Entry”?

It’s true that multitudes celebrated the approach of Jesus. But many of those misunderstood Jesus — just as many still do in our own day and time. Some were clearly expecting a political liberator and they would soon be disappointed. Jesus doesn’t fit neatly into any political system. Most of the religious leaders on the ground got angry and conspired against Jesus. And yet, throughout history, millions have come to believe that Jesus knew exactly what He was doing that day and in the events of the week that followed. So, what are we to make of this person, Jesus of Nazareth?

Join Pastor Jim as he takes us back to that first Palm Sunday to explore what actually happened, what it meant then, and what it still means for us today.
