At last Jesus makes his entrance into Jerusalem - a scene loaded with symbolism of conquest and deliverance for Israel. Yet as we examine the story in detail, the foreshadowing of death and destruction come into view. This is a heartrending passage - one filled with hopes that will be dashed. Kleenex is highly recommended. Text for this sermon is Luke 19:29-46 (NRSV).   Want to support the podcast by giving to Canvas? Here's a quick link to give online.
