Monday of Holy Week

St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center at the University of Kansas
What are you all in for?
I spent $3K on the 2014 World Series. The Royals lost.
I spent $800 to go to the 2019 AFC Championship game versus the Patriots. The Chiefs lost.
I didn't really have the money in either case. But I was all in. And I didn't care what anybody thought. Nothing could keep me from being there for my team. It's the only way I know how to be a fan.
What are you all in for?
Hopefully not sports. They can be an idol. But what is it for you?
Mary spilled the whole jar of perfume on feet. Pretty ridiculous. Very wasteful. She was ridiculed. Yet she bet it all on Jesus. She didn't care what anyone thought. Devotion does not count costs.
What are you all in for?
Jesus is apparently all in for us. He's all in for this most Holy Week of the Year. Because half measures are lame. And they never work.
Jesus is all in for this week. Is anyone else?
What are you all in for?
