The Easter season always comes with an element of anticipation. As we commemorate the days of Lent and reflect on Jesus's sacrifice, Easter Sunday awaits with its festivities and celebrations. But first, Palm Sunday, the fourth Sunday of Lent, begins Holy Week and recognizes Jesus's welcome into Jerusalem before he was crucified.
Preparing for Easter can be busy, with Easter baskets to assemble and Easter cakes to bake. On Palm Sunday, be sure to set aside some time to reflect on these Palm Sunday Bible verses. We've compiled the best quotes from scripture and Easter prayers so that you can have them at the drop of a hat. No matter where you are or who you find yourself with during Holy Week, these faith-affirming quotes will keep you inspired, humble, and joyful all season long.
