Behold, Our King! "The Promised King" | Pastor Todd Hessel

Palm Sunday reveals Jesus as a different kind of king than people expected - one who came to connect us to God through His sacrifice rather than provide political deliverance. Psalm 118, sung during Passover, shows us what makes God unique: His perfect goodness and unending love that never fails. Unlike everything else in this world that becomes tainted by evil, God remains completely good and His covenant love doesn't depend on our performance or circumstances. He serves as our refuge in trouble, gives us victory over overwhelming enemies, and provides salvation from our greatest enemy - sin itself. True thankfulness flows from understanding this gospel transformation and being satisfied with God Himself rather than just His gifts.
