  • 95. Hosanna, Loud Hosanna
    Apr 8 2024

    "Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest." - Matthew 21:9

    Most people know this famous passage in the New Testament when Jesus is welcomed into Jerusalem with shouts of praise and palm branches waving. The very first Palm Sunday about two thousand years ago is commemorated each year in Christian churches and kicks off Holy Week. During this worship service, many churches will sing the famous Palm Sunday hymn, Hosanna, Loud Hosanna by Jeanette Threlfall.

    In this special episode, we're diving deep into the Palm Sunday story, taking a close look at this hymn. We recorded this episode live at our home church, First Baptist Church in Reading, MA. The video is on our YouTube channel. Did you know we have a YouTube channel? Please LIKE and SUBSCRIBE!

    We would love to bring Hymn Talk Twin Talk to your church event. We can speak about one of the hymns from our other live episodes, or you can choose the hymn and we can create something special for your sermon series or event theme. Please reach out to see how we can help!

    We pray that this episode will be a blessing to you. Thanks for listening!

    Love in Him,

    Kerrie and Kellie
