Palm Sunday, The Passion, and Muslims

Donald Sensing has a good exploration of Palm Sunday. Also, once you've read it, scroll down or click here for his thoughts on whether The Passion of The Christ might be a catalyst for good in the Islamic world.

And as long as we're on the subject of religion and The Passion here in the week before Easter, Rick White at The People's Church in Franklin, Tennessee, continues a series of lessons revolving around the final 12 hours of Jesus' life before the crucifixion. Audio from five of the seven-week series of lessons are now online here. Some of the lessons are also available in streaming video.

I've listened to the first three all the way through - and heartily recommend the March 7 lesson if you have time to listen only to one of them. Once the series is complete, I plan on downloading the audio of all seven and burning them onto a CD to listen to again in the future.
