Holy Week
-
The vain attempt to cover all of the action that takes place between the two Sundays. At least the first part anyway.
-
Reading along with each day of Holy Week is a rewarding practice that helps connect us with all that goes into it.
-
As big as Easter is, we load the Sunday before up with all of the pressure of explaining everything to come.
-
We begin Holy Week with Palm Sunday and move quickly to the Passion. But there’s a lot more there we are called to read.
-
The gap between Lent 5 and Holy Week is small—or would be if we stayed in John. But instead, we jump back to Matthew.
-
The true heart of the story is not only what God wants. But how we struggle to want what God wants. Then and now.
