🔥 When the King Comes to Town | Pastor Caden Metcalf
In this powerful Palm Sunday message titled “When the King Comes to Town,” we journey through Matthew 21 and the events leading into Holy Week. Pastor Caden Metcalf unpacks the significance of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem, reminding us that Jesus isn’t just a teacher or friend—He is King of Kings, worthy of all glory, honor, and praise.
🕊️ Key Takeaways:
Jesus keeps His promises: Every prophecy—down to the donkey—fulfilled.
Jesus brings peace: He entered Jerusalem not as a warrior, but as the Prince of Peace.
Jesus is our hope: Even when we don't understand His plan, He's always working for our good.
Jesus desires your heart: The temple needed cleansing, and so do our lives.
Jesus gave everything: A graphic, sobering look at the crucifixion reminds us what He endured so we could live.
Jesus is coming again: Not just as the lamb who was slain—but as the Lion of Judah, returning in victory.
🙌 For Those Searching for Purpose...
This sermon ends with a powerful call to salvation. If you've been chasing purpose, peace, or fulfillment and come up empty—this is your moment. Jesus is the only one who can fill the void in your heart. He loves you, He died for you, and He’s calling you home.
