Palm Sunday

Discussion Questions:

1) Was there anything from the sermon or the passage that stuck out to you?

2) The way we interpret what is happening around us is often shaped by the circumstances we are already in. When has a difficult season in your life caused you to misread what God was actually doing?

3) The crowds who welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem offered genuine worship, but their expectations of who he would be were shaped by their desire for political freedom. What expectations do you place on God that might be limiting the way you receive him?

4) Some people had more knowledge of Scripture than anyone else and still refused to accept what was right in front of them. Is there an area of your life where you might be holding onto an assumption that keeps you from seeing something true?

5( Jesus chose to minister on the fringes rather than in the centers of power and influence. How does this challenge the way you think about where God shows up and who he prioritizes?

6) Obedience, not popularity or circumstance, shaped the way Jesus moved through that week. What would it look like for obedience to be the primary thing driving your decisions right now?
