Mark 11:

Palm Sunday – Celebration With A Purpose

“Rejoice greatly, O daughter Zion! Shout aloud, O daughter Jerusalem! Lo, your king comes to you; triumphant and victorious is he, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey” (Zech. 9:9).

Luke 24:21 - but we had hoped that he was the one who was going to redeem Israel
Being Disappointed By God

Grieve the Loss

Psalm 131 - “How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day? How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?”







Ask What Disappointed You

Be honest about what you expected.







Realize God Hasn’t Walked Away


[Luke 24 – 13-27, 30-32]




[Acts 2:22-24, 37-38] Three thousand were there that day!

He’s the kind of God who welcomes our questions, who can wrestle with us through the confusion and still bless us in the process … He is the kind of God who delights in the plea, ‘Help my unbelief’ and then holds on to us because we can’t hold on to Him anymore. He is the kind of God who can handle all our doubt, all our fear, all our questions if we will simply commit to letting Him. And that is what faith does. Faith does not pretend that it is easy to believe what God reveals about Himself. Faith simply commits to taking the questions back to Him and believes that He will have the answers. – Author Hannah Anderson
