UnityCR: Rev Sanra McKinney 4/14/2019
Manage episode 232761139 series 1073056
We welcome back Unity Minister Rev. Sandra McKinney. Her topic is "Palms Up". Palm Sunday represents, for Jesus, as he humbly rides into Jerusalem, the height of success and acceptance in his mortal life. He is aware that these same crowds that are cheering him will be calling for his crucifixion by the end of this week, yet he embraces this moment as an opportunity for yet another spiritual lesson. He could have entered Jerusalem quietly, calling no attention to himself. But his spiritual purpose requires a greater openness, a willingness to be both in the world, but not of it. And so he carefully stages an entrance to evoke the words of the prophet Zechariah about the arrival of the Christ (humble riding on a donkey).
