Different Than Expected - Rejecting Jesus Part 2

Rejection is one of life’s most difficult — and most common — experiences. All of of us have to deal with rejection at some point in our lives, and what might surprise you is that Jesus Christ dealt with rejection constantly. When we think of Jesus, we often think of the Triumphal Entry, but we tend to forget that, within a week, that same crowd was calling for his crucifixion. Last week, we began a series called “Rejecting Jesus,” exploring the reasons that people rejected Jesus, so we don’t follow in their footsteps and can learn from Him how to handle the rejection that we experience in our own lives. This week, we’re going to look at how people rejected Jesus because He was different than expected.
