Hearing Jesus Garden City Church

    • Christianity

This week, Palm Sunday, Pastor Shaq Hager walked through Matthew 1:11 (CSB), the story of Jesus' triumphal entry. When Jesus entered into Jerusalem the crowds met Him like they would a conquering king, bringing their expectations to Jesus, anticipating Him to be a Messiah who would overthrow Roman rule and restore Israel to a place of cultural and political prominence. The crowds, in many ways, missed Jesus because they were distracted by their own desires. How might we be distracted from seeing and hearing the real Jesus this Holy Week?
