Why did Jesus enter Jerusalem on a donkey? Why did the people shout, “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”? As we continue exploring the passion of Christ leading into this Easter season we look at these questions plus many more. Join us as we find new Freedom through Christ by looking at the words, actions and life of Jesus Christ.

1. Read Mark 11:1-11 and discuss. What part of the story stood out to you? Is there a part of the story that you are confused by or have questions about?
2. The Jews that watched Jesus ride in on the back of the donkey had to know about Jacob’s blessing found in Genesis 49, and Zechariah’s word in Zechariah 9:9-13. How much hope would they have experienced seeing this event take place? Yet it did not go as they were expecting. What do you do when your hope in God doesn’t go as you were expecting?
3. What are you doing to prepare spiritually for Good Friday, the annual Egg Hunt Outreach, and/or for Easter morning? What are you expecting or hoping that God does in your life over the next week?
4. Who do you know that you would love to see born again and connected to church? Would you commit to intentionally reaching out to them and inviting them to Easter morning? (P.S. same question as last week but this shows you the importance of the question.)
