LuAnn Charlton: “The Horse That Jesus Rides”
Want to show that you’re a Messianic hero who is ready to overthrow the oppressive Roman regime? You want a well-trained war
steed. That’s what a conqueror rides! But Jesus intentionally
chooses an unridden, untrained colt. What does his ride symbolize?
April 2: HOLY THURSDAY
7:00 pm - Rick Clayton - “Stories of Grace and Love”
The story of Jesus washing his disciples’ feet has a rather obvious meaning: that we
are to serve one another. But the description of Jesus laying aside his garments for
this task points back to his words about the good shepherd who lays down his life for
the sheep. Taking the role of a slave and washing his disciples’ feet points to the
meaning of his death and resurrection, a cleansing from sin and restoration of true
faith in God.

When they were approaching Jerusalem, at Bethphage and Bethany, near the
Mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the village
ahead of you, and immediately as you enter it, you will find tied there a colt that
has never been ridden; untie it and bring it. If anyone says to you, ‘Why are you
doing this?’ just say this, ‘The Lord needs it and will send it back here immediately.’” They went away and found a colt tied near a door, outside in the street. As
they were untying it, some of the bystanders said to them, “What are you doing,
untying the colt?” They told them what Jesus had said; and they allowed them to
take it. Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their cloaks on it; and he sat
on it. Many people spread their cloaks on the road, and others spread leafy
branches that they had cut in the fields. Then those who went ahead and those
who followed were shouting,
“Hosanna!
Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!
Blessed is the coming kingdom of our ancestor David!
Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
Then he entered Jerusalem and went into the temple; and when he had looked
around at everything, as it was already late, he went out to Bethany with the
twelve.
Mark 11:1-11
