Church Sunday services March, 2024.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
March 24, Palm Sunday -- 9:00 Service. The first reading is Isaiah 50:4-9a. The Psalm is 31. The second reading is Philippians 2:5-11. The gospel reading is Mark 14:1---15:47
"The Passion of Christ," is our sermon title for this coming Sunday. The sermon is based on Mark 11:1-10.
Emphasis points:
1. Many passions surrounded Jesus as he entered Jerusalem.
2. The religious leaders were filled with violent anger toward Jesus.
3. The crowds that welcomed and cheered Jesus were filled with the passions of hope and expectation.
4. The disciples were filled with upset and confusion over what was happening to Jesus.
5. Jesus Christ was filled with the passion of love for all, willing to die for the sins of the world.
In church history class we conclude our study with a look at the period from 1948-1976; pages 192-204 in our study book.
Peace to you,
Ron
