From Hosanna to Crucify Him. The path that disappointment can lead us down
and the hope to be found along the way.
Have you ever been left disappointed? We all have. It is part of being human and something that we often don’t know what to do with. Do we withdraw from it? Do we engage with it? Do we ignore it? With the arrival of Jesus in Jerusalem we see a crowd welcoming a conquering king. His arrival was an illustration of God’s deep commitment to them but yet Jesus’ week that followed didn’t check all the boxes they had in mind. Soon their cries of Hosanna changed to Crucify Him. Disappointment became the cry of their hearts. You may have been disappointed. You may have been hurt. But the story of Jesus is that God will catch and can handle the full weight of your life. It just might not be in the exact way that you expect. We explore this conversation of disappointment on Palm Sunday and how Jesus doesn’t always arrive as we anticipate.
Welcome to the City Collective Podcast. Our heart as a church is founded in our belief in Jesus and who He is. We believe that it is through Jesus that we discover the beauty of love and life. Jesus isn’t an aloof deity set apart from humankind, rather He came to earth to welcome us into relationship with Him. It wasn’t an obligation, but a natural overflow of who He is: LOVE.
We hope that you encounter God's heart in each episode and are challenged and inspired in your relationship with Jesus.
