In this episode, we discuss the readings for the Sunday of the Passion: Palm Sunday, Year B in the Lectionary cycle: Mark 11:1-11 or John 12:12-16 & Psalm 118:1-2, 19-29; Isaiah 50:4-9a; Psalm 31:9-16; Philippians 2:5-11; Mark 14:1-15:47.
We discuss the way the words of the Psalms and prophets connect with Jesus' experience during Holy Week, Paul's exhortation to follow Jesus' example of humility, and approaches to preaching the Passion texts.
You can also listen to our homespun pandemic-friendly two-part reader's theater version of the passion narrative here.
