This Palm Sunday message emphasizes the profound paradox of Jesus’ Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem—how He is simultaneously the humble servant and the triumphant King. Through vivid storytelling and a deep dive into Scripture, the Pastor Chris paints a powerful picture of Jesus riding a lowly donkey while receiving royal praise, confronting the listener with the truth that Jesus is not someone who can be liked casually—He demands full surrender. The sermon contrasts the joyful celebration of the crowd with the tension it creates among the Pharisees, priests, and Romans, each perceiving Jesus as a threat in different ways. Highlighting the immodesty of Christ—His unapologetic claim to be King and God—the message challenges believers to examine where they stand in the crowd: enthusiastic worshiper, cautious follower, skeptical bystander, or conflicted disciple. Ultimately, the sermon calls listeners to “wonder”—to reflect deeply and honestly on their response to Jesus, and whether they truly submit to Him as King, or simply observe from a distance.
