Sermon on 11/9/25 by Pastor Todd Sapp

What do you do when you realize you are constantly in the presence of the King of Kings? This message dives into John 12:12-19, the Triumphal Entry (Palm Sunday), where Jesus, the King, enters Jerusalem riding humbly on a young donkey.

We explore three vital responses we must have when the King is present:

1. Do Something to Honor the King: The crowds waved palm branches and cried "Hosanna" in an act of worship. Discover how everyday moments become opportunities to honor Jesus (1 Corinthians 10:31).
2. Learn from the King: Jesus intentionally fulfilled prophecy by riding a donkey, communicating that He is a Gentle and Humble King who came to bring Peace, not war, and establish a Blood Covenant for freedom.
3. Tell Someone About the King: The witnesses who saw Lazarus raised couldn't stop talking about it. Find your boldness to share the good news of Jesus with those who need purpose and reconciliation.

This sermon challenges you to filter all your decisions and life choices through the reality that King Jesus is always with you.
