Girl, read your Bible

Palm Sunday & People Pleasing


Listen Later

Palm Sunday reminds us of a powerful—and humbling—truth.

One moment, the crowds were shouting “Hosanna!” Just days later, those same voices cried out “Crucify Him!”

In this episode of Girl, Ready Your Bible, we’re talking about what happens when praise turns into pressure… and how quickly people can shift when things don’t go the way they expected.

If you’ve ever felt hurt, confused, or discouraged by people changing on you—you’re not alone. Jesus experienced that too.

But this episode isn’t just about them… it’s also about us.

✨ Are we following Jesus for who He is—or for what we expect Him to do? ✨ Are we living for God’s approval—or people’s applause?

In this episode, we’ll talk about:

  • The Triumphant Entry and the reality behind the crowd
  • Why people-pleasing leaves us exhausted and unstable
  • How to stay rooted in your identity when others are inconsistent
  • A heart check: Are we ever fair-weather followers?

Key Scriptures:

  • Matthew 21:8–11
  • John 12:12–15
  • Matthew 27:20–23
  • Galatians 1:10

💛 Don’t let the same crowd that praises you define you—or the same crowd that rejects you break you.
