Since the first of the year, we’ve been working our way through the stories of our Savior that are found in the Gospel of Luke. Today we’re looking at our text, which comes from the nineteenth chapter of Luke’s Gospel, and it concerns itself with the triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem on the day we now call Palm Sunday.
