Cloaks at His Feet

Palm Sunday is not just about palms: it’s about cloaks, clothing, and the God who claims everything we are. In this sermon, The Very Rev. Andrew McGowan, PhD traces the journey from cloaks thrown before Jesus in triumph, to his stripping in humiliation, to the white robes of baptism that signify being “clothed with Christ.” He invites us to consider what it means to throw our whole lives—our possessions, roles, and identities—at Jesus’ feet and be re-clothed in his freedom and new life.
