This Weekend at Northview

This weekend at Northview we are doing part 1 of our series iDefy...iCame (Palm Sunday). This weekend is going to be incredible. Every element of our worship experience is going to point to the fact that the Son of God came to this earth, wrapped himself in flesh, and lived a human life. What an amazing God. The video below is one element of this week that I thought I would share. It is a video piece designed to accent the beautiful story told in the song "Why" by Nicole Nordeman. Enjoy this Easter season. The reason this season exists is how we know Jesus Christ is the redeemer and savior of the world.



Mark 11

The Triumphal Entry

1As Jesus and his disciples approached Jerusalem, they came to the towns of Bethphage and Bethany, on the Mount of Olives. Jesus sent two of them on ahead. 2"Go into that village over there," he told them, "and as soon as you enter it, you will see a colt tied there that has never been ridden. Untie it and bring it here. 3If anyone asks what you are doing, just say, `The Lord needs it and will return it soon.' "
4The two disciples left and found the colt standing in the street, tied outside a house. 5As they were untying it, some bystanders demanded, "What are you doing, untying that colt?" 6They said what Jesus had told them to say, and they were permitted to take it. 7Then they brought the colt to Jesus and threw their garments over it, and he sat on it.

8Many in the crowd spread their coats on the road ahead of Jesus, and others cut leafy branches in the fields and spread them along the way. 9He was in the center of the procession, and the crowds all around him were shouting,


"Praise God![a]
Bless the one who comes in the name of the Lord!

10
Bless the coming kingdom of our ancestor David!
Praise God in highest heaven!"[b]
11So Jesus came to Jerusalem and went into the Temple. He looked around carefully at everything, and then he left because it was late in the afternoon. Then he went out to Bethany with the twelve disciples.
