Pastor Sam delivers a powerful Palm Sunday message from Luke 19 that reveals Jesus not just as Savior, but as King. All Hail King Jesus! is a call to see Him clearly, honor Him fully, and respond with the kind of praise that makes room for His presence. This message reminds us that praise is not just celebration. It is surrender, declaration, and preparation for what God is about to do.

• Praise declares the kingship of Christ

Listen now and be reminded that when the King enters, everything changes.

Why are so many of us burning out so quickly?

What if the answer to our exhaustion wasn’t in more energy drinks, but in learning to embrace the quiet and waiting on the strength of God?

In this episode, Francis shares a handful of stories from around the world to illustrate how spending time alone with God truly refreshes our hearts, brings peace to our souls, and empowers us with His Spirit to become all we were created to be.

As we learn to be still in His presence and embrace the beauty of silence with Him, our strength is renewed, our vision becomes clear, and our identity is found as His beloved son or daughter.

Carmen LeBerge comments on the weekend "No Kings" rallies, and even how some who call themselves Christians reject Jesus' kingship.  She then reflects on Holy Monday when King Jesus cleansing the temple and Him being rejected by the religious leaders.  Dietican Rebecca Corwin, author of "Arise and Eat," looks at the foods of the Passover and how they actually point to Jesus, his life, the events of Holy Week, and what He did for us.
