Wisdom in the Desert: The Lessons of the Desert

Palm Sunday is often remembered as a parade, but it was actually a confrontation. In this final installment of the "Wisdom in the Desert" series, Pastor Dan Sinkhorn breaks down the deep, prophetic meaning behind Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem and what it reveals about the human heart. Why did the same voices that shouted "Hosanna" on Sunday scream for an execution by Friday? The answer lies in the gap between our worldly expectations and God’s holy intentions. Drawing on the insights of St. Augustine and the Desert Fathers, Pastor Dan explores how our lives become "disordered" when we love even good things—like family, security, or success—more than we love Jesus Christ. If your spiritual life feels like a "glitchy operating system," this episode is a call to hit the reset button. As we move into Holy Week, learn how to carry the silence and discipline of the desert into the noise of the city.
