On this final Sunday in Lent, Richie Reeder reflects on both Palm Sunday and the church's "Lessons of the Desert" series, inviting listeners to consider how practices from the wilderness—prayer, testing, silence and solitude, self-denial, wisdom, and humility—might shape their lives beyond the season. Teaching from Matthew 21 and contrasting the crowds' "Hosanna" on Sunday with "Crucify him" on Friday, he challenges listeners to examine where their own faith can be fickle rather than faithful, especially when God doesn't meet their expectations. Richie closes by urging the church to carry these desert rhythms into Holy Week with a posture of honest reflection, surrender, and humble dependence on Christ.
