Palm Sunday wasn’t just a moment. It was a movement of people, a city overflowing with expectation, emotion, and decision.In this powerful Palm Sunday message from Pastor George Sawyer, we step into the streets of Jerusalem during Passover and wrestle with a deeply personal question: Who would you have been in the crowd?
With powerful teaching from Scripture, including connections to Matthew 21, Luke 19, Exodus 12, and Hebrews 12, Pastor Sawyer calls believers to move beyond crowd-based identity and step into personal, resilient faith. Faith that praises boldly. Faith that lays down old identities. Faith that presses through the noise to truly encounter Jesus.You’re not just part of a crowd. You have a calling. You have a testimony. And your response to Jesus matters.
