Palm Sunday or Passion Sunday. It is the 6th Sunday of Lent. We reflect on the passion narrative from Mark 14:1-15:47. You know it as Palm Sunday. It's also called Passion Sunday. On this Sunday, we recall Jesus' triumphant entry into Jerusalem, with people welcoming a messiah riding on a donkey. I have a video on what is Jesus doing on a white donkey. Check in the description section below for the link. But it's also known as the passion Sunday due to a lengthy passion reading recalling Jesus' last forty to sixty hours of agony, trial, crucifixion, and death.

Gospel writer Mark gives detailed accounts of Jesus last moments on earth in two chapters (Mark 14 & 15). It's like Mark's testimony of Jesus' death, it causes and meaning.

Why did Jesus Die?
According to Mark, it because of the failing of his closest disciples. You know, Judas betrayed him; the core group was weak to keep awake and wait for him. Peter, who talked boldly to defend Jesus, denies Jesus. Another follower ran away naked from the scene of the arrest. Jesus died because he was betrayed, deserted, and denied by his followers.

But that's not the whole story?
