This week, Pastor Darren continues our Revelation series by exploring chapters 14 and 15, painting a vivid picture of what it means to stand with the Lamb in the end and how that shapes who we are today. In a world full of fear, pressure, and compromise, the call isn't to strive harder or prove yourself. Instead, it's to be marked by Jesus, shaped by His mercy and truth, and transformed into people who reflect His character. Worship isn't just something we do. It's the way God forms us, rewrites our stories, and leads us through the refining fire to live with confidence and purpose in the midst of cultural pressures.

Send us a textDeath couldn't hold Him. The grave couldn't keep Him. The resurrection of Jesus changed everything.In this episode, we are joined by Pastor Darren as we walk through the final week of Jesus's earthly ministry—from His triumphal entry on Palm Sunday to His glorious resurrection. Together, we unpack the profound significance behind each day's events and how they perfectly fulfilled God's redemptive plan.Through our conversation, we explore the contradictions and tensions that filled that momentous week: crowds who shouted "Hosanna" on Sunday but "Crucify Him" by Friday; religious leaders who claimed to know Scripture yet rejected their Messiah; and disciples who pledged loyalty yet scattered in fear. These human responses mirror our own struggles to fully embrace Christ's mission. Tune in to Unsexy Church for a sneak peek on what is to come this Resurrection Sunday!
Pastor Darren speaks on how the different groups (the Centurion, the crowd, the religious leaders, Jesus' followers) responded as the result of witnessing Jesus' death and burial. The ultimate response is for you - "What are you going to do with Jesus?" Making it Practical - 1. read the story of Jesus crucifixion in the other Gospels - Matt.27:1-66; Mark 15:1-47, Luke 23:1-56; John 18:28-19:42 2. Take time to contemplate who Jesus is and what He means to you 3. Who can to talk to about Jesus?
