The King We Needed | Palm Sunday | Pastor John Brockman 03.29.2026

This Palm Sunday message, The King We Needed, walks us through Matthew 21 and the powerful tension of Jesus’ triumphal entry, celebrated as King, yet deeply misunderstood. While the crowds shouted “Hosanna,” expecting a conquering Savior, Jesus came as a humble King riding on a donkey, bringing not political freedom but eternal salvation through the cross. This message challenges us to examine whether we truly trust Jesus for who He is or only for what we expect Him to do, reminding us that real faith isn’t built on outcomes but on surrender. As we reflect on Palm Sunday and the beginning of Holy Week, we’re invited to move beyond surface-level praise and fully lay down our lives before the King who chose us first, even in our misunderstanding.
