Palm Sunday, April 13: Popularity versus Purpose

Worship the Lord with us at 10 am on Palm Sunday, April 13, 2025. Pastor Brett’s topic is “Popularity versus Purpose” with scriptures that include Zechariah 9:9-10, Luke 19:28-40, and Luke 19:41-48.

This Sunday we celebrate Palm Sunday. Jesus enters Jerusalem exactly as Zechariah prophesied, “humble, riding on a on a donkey, a colt, the foal of a donkey.” He hears the cries of hosanna, “blessed is the king who comes in the name of the Lord.” In His heart though, Jesus knew that this popularity would be fleeting and within a week their cries would go from hosanna to crucify. Praise be to God, Jesus chose God’s will, God’s purpose over popularity.

April 6: Letting Go of the Past

Join us to worship the Lord on Sunday, April 6, 2025 at 10 am. Pastor Brett’s topic is “Letting Go of the Past.” Our scriptures include Psalm 126, Isaiah 43:16-21, and Philippians 3:4b-14, 15-21.

This coming Sunday we hear the Apostle Paul exploring his past, his zeal in the persecution of the church. He contrasts this with his future, a new life in Christ that is almost unimaginable to him. Paul embraces Jesus and abandons all to embrace our Savior, Jesus Christ. In light of Paul, we’ll explore our past and future in faith, our identity, and our purpose in Jesus Christ.

Professor Susan Eastman writes on this, “God continually wrenches us from what is comfortable and familiar and tugs us into the glorious future of the children of God.”

Synopsis: At one time or another we have certain expectations in our life. We make plans and we see our lives going a certain way, until something happens and changes those plans. Sometimes it is God leading us in a new direction. Other times God will use events in our life to mold us and shape us. In any event, one has to let go of one’s own expectations and follow God’s leading.
