On Palm Sunday, the crowds welcomed Jesus into Jerusalem with palm branches and shouts of "Hosanna," longing for a conquering king to free them from Roman oppression. But Dr. John Neufeld shows that Jesus deliberately gave them something far different — and far better. Riding in on a humble donkey, he came not to defeat Rome, but to defeat sin and death itself, offering the salvation we desperately need rather than the liberation we desperately wanted.

Passion: Easter is a pivotal time in the life of a Christian. The foundation of our faith relies on the death and more importantly, the resurrection of Jesus. This 15-message series will prepare our hearts for the Easter season as Dr. Neufeld walks us through the various aspects of the time leading up to Jesus’ death. Talking about the stories of Jesus in the week leading up to his death, also known as Passion week, ought to awaken our own passion of service, thankfulness, and worship. This is a series you won’t want to miss!

No matter if we’re four or 84...when we’re told not to do something, we immediately want to. Don’t touch wet paint. Don’t walk on the grass. Don’t fish off the balcony. We’re all guilty of wanting to do what we’re not supposed to. And that’s why we all need God’s grace.

Former Senator Ben Sasse shares about his recent cancer diagnosis, addressing human frailty and the reality of death, while accepting that God allows suffering. He also shares about redeeming the time by worshipping Jesus and loving your family in the time God has given you.

Scripture often describes our behavior as the clothes we wear. In 1 Peter 5:5, Peter urges us to be “clothed with humility.” David speaks of evil people who clothe themselves “with cursing.”

Garments can symbolize character. The character of Jesus was a seamless fabric woven from heaven to earth, from God’s thoughts to Jesus’ actions. From God’s tears to Jesus’ compassion. From God’s word to Jesus’ response. All one piece. A picture of the character of Jesus.

But when Christ was nailed to the cross, He took off His robe of seamless perfection and assumed a different wardrobe—the wardrobe of indignity. He wore our sin so we could wear His righteousness.
