Jesus is welcomed as king and that's all good but they obviously don't understand what it's all about. So not knowing the whole story they kind of get things messed up. Here's the link to the Palm Sunday message with some deeper connections to the story of Palm Sunday. https://youtu.be/2pzk63ikKm0

Sometimes life just doesn't seem fair. This is what Jesus says about a fair kind of life.

When we approach a topic with our negative mindset we will try to spin it in a way it was never meant to be spun.

Jesus takes time to teach about greatness and service and love and forgiveness.

What is this transfiguration thing about anyway?

From demands of signs to confession of identity this chapter of Matthew is packed with meaning and power for the follower of Jesus. The focus of this chapter is all about what we believe about Jesus and who we believe he is. Who do you say that he is?

There are a ton of rules that we may not even know about. One of them in the Bible was a rule on how you were to wash your hands. What makes this a tad more humorous is where we are in 2021 and how we're a bit more hyper sensitive about hand washings. Jesus tells the leaders that their focus is all wrong. Hand washing is important but it's not the point really.

Jesus does some pretty crazy and amazing things. This one time he fed tons of people with a boy's lunch. You should really check that one out.

Jesus teaches using something called parables. In parables Jesus combines the known with the unknown to make the unknown...known. It's pretty cool how this works. But not everyone will get it because some are stubborn or they're just hung up on themselves.

Jesus shows who he is by what he does but also by what's happened before him. A quick teaching moment with words and actions.
