"We need the Jesus of Holy Week to teach us that you can never be perfect enough to avoid rejection."

//

Psalm 118:22-24, 29

The stone that the builders rejected
has become the chief cornerstone.
This is the Lord’s doing;
it is marvelous in our eyes.
This is the day that the Lord has made;
let us rejoice and be glad in it.

O give thanks to the Lord, for he is good,
for his steadfast love endures forever.
