Looking ahead to Palm Sunday

"Both children and theologians were part of the Palm Sunday throng. One can only imagine that the theologians had spent a very hard morning working with old Hebrew word roots. Their scholarship was rigorous, and it left them so distracted, they never saw the Son of God when he entered the city. The children, well ... they were quite another matter. They loved Jesus and were so glad to see him coming into Jerusalem, they began to shout their uninhibited praises." - Calvin Miller, The Christ of Easter (Broadman & Holman, 2004)
