The Cross Was Always the Plan


Listen Later

Most people jump straight to Good Friday and Easter Sunday… but skip everything in between. And that might be the mistake.


In this episode, we walk through each day of Jesus’ final week—from the celebration of Palm Sunday to the betrayal, the temple confrontation, the garden surrender, and ultimately the cross.


The shocking truth? The same crowd that shouted “Hosanna” was rejecting Him just days later. Why?


Because they wanted a Savior… just not the one Jesus came to be.

👉 They wanted freedom from Rome

👉 Jesus came to free them from sin

👉 They wanted a crown

👉 Jesus brought a cross

And honestly… we still do the same thing today.


This conversation will challenge the version of Jesus you may be following—and reveal what it actually means to surrender, not just celebrate.


🔑 In This Episode:

Why Palm Sunday is more dangerous than you think

The real reason Jesus flipped tables in the temple

The difference between celebrating Jesus and submitting to Him

How Judas drifted long before he betrayed Jesus

Why the cross wasn’t Plan B—it was perfectly timed

What it actually looks like to be spiritually ready


If you’ve ever wanted Jesus to fix your situation… but resisted letting Him change your heart—this one’s for you.


👉 Don’t just skip to the ending. Walk the week.
