Podcasts about humble king

In our new Advent series, Humble King, we explore the ancient hymn of Philippians 2. Jesus' kingship is revealed not through power and prestige but through self-giving love. Humility is not weakness but the very shape of God's strength. We look honestly at the pain of waiting—the in-between tension of the “now and not yet”—and how Jesus' own descent and exaltation anchor us in hope.

Windows into Faith: The Humble King - Rev. Kevin JohnsonChrist the King Sunday- The Humble KingOn this Christ the Kingdom Sunday we will consider the kind of Kingship Jesus embraced, for Jesus was a King who rode into his city on a donkey, without armed guards and shows of political might, but with joy, love, and a heart for God's people. What wisdom can we glean from our sanctuary window depicting the triumphal entry, and how might we live as faithful citizens of Christ's Kingdom today?Windows Into FaithWe are surrounded by the stories of our faith every Sunday. Are they just pretty colors of glass? Or, could these stories of faith be here to shape us as followers of Jesus and his community together? Join us for this series as we explore the stories of the saints of old and consider how we may live as saints of God today.Colossians 1:11-20 and Luke 19:29-40

- In this message we explore how humility before God brings transformation and mercy. Using the example of the King of Nineveh in Jonah 3, we look at the contrasts between worldly power and pride with the humility of Christ—the ultimate King who gave up His glory to serve and save.

Matthew 11:29-30 | Joshua Cottrell

If we are going to choose any way to walk, let's walk in the humble steps of Jesus Christ. In Philippians 2, Paul reminds us that being united with Christ leads to unity with one another. We are called to: Be united with Christ (v.1) Be of one mind and spirit (v.2) Look to the interests of others, not ourselves (v.4).

After Jesus prays for his disciples, the narrative moves forward to his betrayal and arrest where we see our humble king. He is a king in full majesty and power whose Kingdom is not of this world. So as he stands before all the authorities, Pilate, the high priest, and those who would arrest him, he is in complete control. And at the same time, he is the humble king, who was obedient even unto death so that we may have life. Therefore, we ought to trust and obey our humble king.

Who Is Jesus - Are You Becoming Like the Humble King by Anchor Church Palos

Despite the cryptic inferences in this story as in all of Rebbe Nachman's tales, we can understand on a personal level. This tale maps our individual journey of searching and finding Hashem.

This is a re-release of Episode 36 of Season 3, which is a Palm Sunday reflection on Matthew 21:6-14. Jesus rides into Jerusalem to the praise of the people expecting a triumphant political ruler. But Jesus is seated on a donkey, not a warhorse. He goes to the temple, not Herod's palace. He drives out the money changers, not the Romans. But in so doing, He makes a way for peace amid violence; healing amid injustice.Connect with me at Mick@MickRMurray.com // feel free to share, subscribe, rate, and/or commentBackground tracks (licensed via Musicbed): - Blossom by Roary- Borealis by Jo Blankenburg- By Design (reprise) by Phillip Cuccias

Sermon Summary:On Palm Sunday, we explored the Triumphal Entry of Jesus into Jerusalem from John 12:12-19. This pivotal event, recorded in all four gospels, reveals profound truths about our hope and expectations. As Jesus entered Jerusalem during Passover, the city was bursting with Jews who had traveled there to celebrate. The crowds welcomed him with palm branches (symbols of national victory) and shouts of "Hosanna!" (meaning "save us now"), revealing their hope for a nationalist Messiah who would overthrow Roman rule.However, Jesus intentionally chose to ride a young donkey, fulfilling Zechariah's prophecy about a humble king who would bring peace to all nations. This deliberate choice contradicted the crowd's nationalistic expectations. While they wanted a warrior-king like David, Jesus was demonstrating that his kingdom transcended national boundaries.We highlighted two key lessons from this passage. First, nationalism doesn't belong in the church. When we confuse patriotism with our faith or believe our hope comes from human leaders rather than Christ, we risk missing God's work among us. Our Savior doesn't reside in government buildings but is often found among the marginalized.Second, we must be vigilant not to miss God's presence right before us. The religious leaders of Jesus' day knew Scripture intimately yet failed to recognize God incarnate walking among them. In Luke's account, Jesus weeps over Jerusalem because they "did not recognize the time of God's coming."As we approach Easter, we should examine where we're placing our hope—in finances, family, nation, or the living God? We're challenged to tangibly meet a neighbor's needs this week, following Jesus' example of service and remaining attentive to how God is moving in our midst today.

Matthew 21:1-11

“Hosanna in the highest!”Each year, we celebrate Palm Sunday as a way to remember when Jesus triumphantly enters into Jerusalem. Using this story, we'll take a deeper look at the concept of humility. Together as a community, we may discover where God shows himself to be humble and where He is calling us to “take on humility” in our own lives. Join us at 4:00pm as we celebrate our humble king and begin Holy Week.

This week, Pastor Jeremy continues our Easter series, Resurrection Road, with this sermon from Romans 6. He shares how we must walk in grace and humility because walking in sin is not an option for the child of God.

We look at the famous Zechariah 9about "the King coming," "humble on a donkey"in it's entire original context, all to appreciate Jesus and Palm Sunday even more

On Palm Sunday, Jesus rode into Jerusalem not on a warhorse, but on a donkey-choosing humility over power and identifying with the lowly, not the elite. in this message, we see how the triumphant entry wasn't for the proud, but for the forgotten, the overlooked and the Broken. Passage: Luke 19: 28-44

From the series "According To Luke"

In Mark 11:1-11, Jesus finally arrives into Jerusalem, the place that he has laid out as where he will spend his final days. By riding into town on a donkey, he is not only fulfilling the prophecy laid out to us in Zechariah 9:9, but also is subverting expectations of what it means to be a king. This approach, while completely countercultural then and now, invites Jesus' followers to walk in similarly humble footsteps. Jesus is building with us a KIN-dom relationship -- where we become partners alongside him and continue the work that Jesus started. Through this passage, he demonstrates to us what can happen when we allow God to move, when we involve others in our lives, and when we admit that maybe we don't know best. Jesus' humility is an invitation to us to embrace the gifts we have not for our own glory or satisfaction, but for the good of others.  By Rebekah Covington

We all ultimately follow someone, and we believe that the One worth following is Jesus!
