Why Jesus Rode a Donkey

On Palm Sunday, Jesus entered Jerusalem as a King—but not the kind people expected. Riding on a donkey, He revealed a kingdom marked by humility, not power. And instead of heading to a palace, He went straight to the temple… and turned it upside down.

In a moment that shocked the crowd, Jesus cleared out the barriers that kept outsiders at a distance and made room for healing, worship, and belonging. The message was unmistakable: God’s house is for everyone.

This Palm Sunday, we’re invited to see who Jesus really is—and to respond. The door is open. The invitation is simple: say yes to Him.
