    In his Palm Sunday message at Cherry Hills Community Church, Pastor Curt Taylor explored the deep sense of disappointment the disciples felt as the week unfolded—not the triumphant rise they expected, but a confusing descent into suffering. As Jesus entered Jerusalem to shouts of "Hosanna," the disciples anticipated a conquering king who would overthrow Rome and establish earthly power. Instead, they witnessed their Messiah riding a donkey, speaking of sacrifice, and ultimately heading toward a cross. Pastor Curt reminded us that God's plans often clash with our expectations, and in the disciples' disillusionment, we see a reflection of our own struggles to trust when the path takes a painful turn. Yet even in the midst of their disappointment, Jesus was fulfilling a far greater purpose—one that would bring eternal hope through the paradox of the cross.

    In this sermon, Pastor Curt Talyor will explore the story of Zacchaeus from Luke 19, a powerful example of Jesus' deep love for those far from Him. Zacchaeus, a tax collector and a man despised by many, climbed a tree to catch a glimpse of Jesus. Despite his past and the judgments of others, Jesus looked up, called Zacchaeus by name, and invited Himself into his home, demonstrating that no one is too far from God's grace. This encounter transformed Zacchaeus' life, leading him to repentance and a commitment to make things right. Connecting this story with the act of baptism, we will see how Jesus not only seeks those who are lost but also calls them into a new life. Baptism symbolizes this profound transformation and commitment, representing a public declaration of faith and a fresh start in following Christ. Just as Jesus invited Zacchaeus into a relationship with Him, He invites each of us today, regardless of our past, to experience the fullness of His love and grace through repentance and baptism.
