Episode Synopsis

Our Gospel Lesson this week, whether you're reading from Matthew, Mark, Luke or John, is the story of Christ's Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem. It's the performance that begins Holy Week, and quite literally provokes the events of Good Friday. Jesus asks us in this little bit of theatrical protest, just what does power look like? The answer surprised his contemporaries, and continues to call to us today.
