The Ironies of Palm Sunday

Presented at Curwensville Alliance on 3/29/26 by Pastor Steve Shields.

Listen as Pastor Steve speaks on three ironies of Palm Sunday.

The One who comes as King does not pursue a throne. What’s the deal with the king who doesn’t pursue a throne?

The One who rides in peace causes mayhem in the temple. It makes you wonder what might need turned over in your own life.

The One who rides in triumph is riding to His death. Death for those in Christ is not to be feared.

What does Palm Sunday say to you? You and I must enthrone this King in our midst and in our hearts. This King will want to rearrange our lives. The King has come to eliminate whatever keeps you from God.

The Person of Christ :: PHILIPPIANS

Listen as Pastor Steve goes through Philippians 2:5-11.

The power of Christ. The power to surrender. The power to serve. The power to lay down His life.

The purpose of Christ is to die that we may live. The purpose of Christ is to win our love. The obedience to death – even death on the cross whispers our worth and shouts God’s love.

The preeminence of Christ. At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow and every tongue will acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. It is not based in fear or coercion, but rather based in the person Jesus is.
