Westminster Presbyterian Church, Alexandria Va

Today I am going to focus on Palm Sunday – specifically on the crowd who greeted Jesus with cries of “Hosanna!” on Sunday but whose cries morphed into “Crucify him!” by Thursday. In a matter of four days the crowd moved from joy to anger, from welcome to outrage, from celebration to vengeance. And it moved as one mind: intense, emotional, passionate. Rev. Larry Hayward preaches on Palm Sunday. The Scripture lesson is Mark 11:1-11.
