Behold, the King (An Easter Series, Part 1) | S4E30

About this episode

The episode explores the significance of Palm Sunday and Jesus' kingship, emphasizing faith and allegiance amidst doubts.

Palm Sunday wasn't just marketing for Jesus. It was an offer to accept Jesus Christ as King. Our Messiah—our King—is one to whom we swear allegiance because we trust Him. To be saved by faith is not just accepting the gift of eternal life. It is trusting Jesus Christ enough to follow Him and obey even when we don’t understand where He is taking us and why the journey is so hard. This doesn’t mean we have no doubts or that we need to have perfect faith before we can be saved. It means that, despite our doubts, we affirm the ancient declaration: “Jesus Christ is Lord.” For the next three episodes, we'll be lingering in the Easter season with thoughts on Jesus the King, the nature of "tough love" and how Jesus wielded it during Holy Week, and the incredible exchange that He offers through His death and resurrection. If you want to sit with some of these thoughts, you can find three related blog posts at Deeper Walk's website (linked). Join us as we explore the significance of the Easter season, delving into Jesus' kingship, the rejection He faced, and what allegiance to King Jesus means for us today. Thank you for joining us – father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner –…
