Two Different Parades, Two Different Powers

Welcome to State Street Community Church! Wherever you're joining us from, please know that you are welcomed and wanted here.

Today marks the Sixth Sunday of Lent – Palm Sunday! We find ourselves at the threshold of Holy Week, reflecting on Jesus' entry into Jerusalem. The crowds were ecstatic, waving palms and expecting a conquering hero, a king who would overthrow their oppressors with worldly power. But the King arrived... differently.

Join us as Pastor Nate delivers this week's message. We will explore Luke's account of the Triumphal Entry, contrasting the crowd's expectations with the reality of Jesus' humble arrival on a donkey—a deliberate gesture signifying peace, service, and a radical redefinition of power.

Why does this matter to us today? In a world often obsessed with status, strength, and winning, how does following this 'different' King reshape our priorities in our families, workplaces, and interactions within a divided community? Let's explore together how embracing Jesus' upside-down kingdom offers a more fulfilling and faithful way to live.

Scripture Focus: Luke 19:28-40
