The King Who Went From Smashing To Crashing

Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 27, 2014

Here's a king who, because of pride and rebellion, chose to look only to doctors and not to God for his healing. His stance was a result of waning faith, going against his previous experience, and even against his knowledge of God’s character.

Our King's Glad Face Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 16, 2021

Palm Sunday is a day of great paradox, for it was a day of such contrasting emotions. Jesus was such a glad king; such a sad king, and such a mad king.

The final week of the life of Abraham Lincoln has an amazing parallel to that of the final week of Jesus. From Palm Sunday to Good Friday is only 5 days, yet in that 5 days we go from the scene of the triumphal entry of the King to the scene of the tragic exit of the King on the cross. Listen to ...read more
