Today we enter, what many in the Christian community call 'Holy Week', a rather strange title but it's a week which is bookended by apparent triumph. Jesus' triumphal entry into Jerusalem, where a crowd saw, quite wrongly, a king who would rescue Israel from Roman tyranny as they shouted; 'Hosanna' which means, 'Save now Lord'. At the end of that week, a week of teaching, prayer and tumult. The other bookend of this historic week saw many recognising Jesus for the King of kings, the king that he is. The king who came to die for those who will turn to him, the King who didn't come to conquer an army but death, sin and hell. There will be more about this special week as we work our way through, so keep an eye out for updates.
