- Description:
- This audio recording features a church service at Central United Methodist Church on April 4, 1982 in Atlanta, Georgia. This audio recording begins with songs and a prayer. At 00:18:13, Joseph E. Lowery gives a sermon about Palm Sunday. In his sermon, Lowery talks about how Jesus brought hope, care, and self-understanding to the city of Jerusalem during His pilgrimage. Lowery emphasizes how Palm Sunday forces cities such as Jerusalem, Atlanta, and others to develop new personal relationships and unity, revelation of self-fate and identity, and choices of parade or pilgrimage. The recording concludes with Lowery leading the choir in song and sharing announcements with the congregation.
