Palm Sunday can feel like a quick turn toward Easter, but we don’t want it to be a blur. We start with real life conversation and a fast run through what’s coming up at DeSoto Hills Baptist Church, including Impact Month opportunities to serve, Palm Sunday with the Lord’s Supper, our Easter egg hunt, and the pace of Easter morning services. If you’ve been looking for a place to plug in, we point you toward practical teams like audio visual, kitchen, security, and women’s ministry so serving doesn’t stay theoretical.
Then we shift into our Midweek Moment devotion and chase a question a lot of Christians quietly carry: when Jesus says, “This is the new covenant in My blood,” what is a covenant anyway? We define covenant in plain language, then zoom out to the Bible’s ancient Near East backdrop to explain three covenant forms that show up across Scripture: treaty, contract, and grant. That framework helps the Old Testament click and it sets up why the gospel is such good news.
From there, we walk through the Adamic covenant in Genesis, the fall, and the first promise of redemption. Finally, we land in Romans 5 where Paul contrasts Adam and Jesus, showing how sin and death spread through one man, while grace, justification, and righteousness come through Christ as a free gift. If you want a clearer grasp on Bible covenants, the new covenant, and how Communion connects to the full story of salvation, this conversation is for you.
