Palm Sunday: Who is This?

This week, Palm Sunday, JC teaches from Matthew 21. He focuses on the affections of those in Jerusalem being stirred up by the events surrounding Jesus' triumphant entry into the city. However, were they stirred up by the events, or were they stirred up because of who Jesus was? As we prepare our hearts for Easter, we need to examine what is stirring our affections - are we focusing on Christ or on the events surrounding the holiday.
