The Misunderstood King - Palm Sunday

Apr 13, 2025    Brian Hassett

They waved palm branches, shouted “Hosanna,” and laid down their cloaks…

But they weren’t celebrating the King they needed — just the one they wanted.

This week, we’re in Luke 4:16–30, where Jesus walks into His hometown synagogue and flips every expectation in the room.

And spoiler alert: the people who once praised Him?

They try to throw Him off a cliff.


👑 He came to bring good news — not good vibes.

💬 He preached grace for outsiders — and got rage from insiders.

🔁 From applause to attempted execution in less than 15 verses.

We’re asking: What do you do when Jesus doesn’t meet your expectations?

Will you still follow the King who confronts your comfort?

He doesn’t ride in to fit our plans. He rides in to flip them.


🎥 Watch now — and bring your whole heart, not just your palm branch.
