About this episode

Pastor Will reflects on Jesus' entry into Jerusalem and the transformative presence of God during Palm Sunday.

This week, Pastor Will reflects on Matthew 21:1–11 and Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. As crowds shout “Hosanna,” we see what happens when people have truly encountered the presence of God. This Palm Sunday sermon explores how the church isn’t called to manufacture excitement, but to become a place where that transforming presence is experienced and shared.
