Holy Week: Slowing Down the Journey
from Pivot Podcast
Holy Week marks the most pivotal moments in the Christian faith, but how often do we rush to get to Easter morning? In this thoughtful 7-minute reflection, Terri invites listeners to slow down and experience the complete journey. Drawing from personal experiences of bringing her young children to Good Friday services, Terri illustrates how encountering the darkness and solemnity of Christ's death creates a deeper appreciation for Easter's resurrection joy. She explores how each moment of Holy Week—from Palm Sunday's "Hosannas" to the confusion of the Last Supper to the waiting of Holy Saturday—enriches our faith journey. Terri reminds us that Jesus brought a countercultural message of unconditional love to a world focused on who's in and who's out—a message that continues to challenge and transform us today. This brief but meaningful episode offers listeners permission to sit with difficult questions and emotions, knowing that Easter's promise awaits. Perfect for personal reflection or sharing with your congregation as Holy Week approaches.
