On Palm Sunday, the crowds turn out waving palm branches, laying their coats, and cheering for Jesus. A few months later, the whole city is astir again as Jesus' disciples are, by faith, healing the sick, driving out demons, caring for the poor, and proclaiming life in Jesus’ name. The faith-filled excitement collides with the cold, selfish, fearful jealousy of the religious leaders. Today we see how two groups are stirred up, one by jealousy, and a second by faith.
