Wanna See Jesus?: A Palm Sunday Audio Monologue

We're between today's cries of "Hosanna" and tomorrow's shouts of "Crucify." There's an increasing tension as Good Friday is around the corner - however impossible that might seem given today's street celebration.

Who was in the Jerusalem crowd that day? Can we admit that those same deeply embedded feelings are within us still - even this side of Easter. Suffering, misjudgments, betrayal, denial, sin are real, as real today as every before - and so often our Palm Sundays give way to violent Fridays and we must learn again and again to keep our eyes open to a "God encounter," keep our Fridays open to the possibility of Easter - a resurrection cycle that's sometimes hard to see.
