Today, we encounter the paradox that defines our faith: Jesus Christ is glorified
king and humiliated servant. We too are full of paradox: like Peter, we fervently
desire to follow Christ, but find ourselves afraid, denying God. We wave palms in
celebration today as Christ comes into our midst, and we follow with trepidation as
his path leads to death on the cross. Amid it all we are invited into this paradoxical
promise of life through Christ’s broken body and outpoured love in a meal of bread
and wine. We begin this week that stands at the center of the church year,
anticipating the completion of God’s astounding work.
