April 13, 2025 | Palm Sunday

The Passover crowds were looking for a deliverer, a son of David who would rise up and throw off the shackles of Roman oppression. So imagine their disappointment when Jesus entered Jerusalem peacefully on the back of a gentle donkey. They didn’t recognize Him as the king they’d been waiting for. We can have the same problem they did: We look to Jesus for help or comfort without also recognizing Him as our king or accepting that His way can be hard to follow. In this Palm Sunday message, Pastor Connor talks about the importance of receiving Jesus as He actually is, as well as some practical ways we can do that.
