Church of the Incarnation Sermons

Palm Sunday marks the beginning of Holy Week—but this week is more than what it appears to be.It is easy to move through these days as just another stretch of time filled with responsibilities, schedules, and routines. But Holy Week invites us to see more deeply—to recognize that beneath the surface, something eternal is unfolding.The story of Jesus breaks through the “enchantments” we live under: the belief that we are in control, that we are self-sufficient, or that our deepest needs can be solved by the world around us. Instead, Holy Week reveals the truth—our greatest need is deeper than we think, and only Christ can meet it.From Palm Sunday to the cross and ultimately to the empty tomb, we are invited into a real encounter with Jesus—one that frees us from sin and death and calls us into new life.As we walk through this holiest week, may our eyes be opened, our hearts awakened, and our lives transformed by the One who came to save us.📖 Scripture: Philippians 2:5–11; Matthew 21:1–11🕊️ Preacher: Rev.

Palm Sunday invites us into the most sacred story of all—the journey of Jesus toward the cross. As the narrative unfolds, we are confronted not only with Christ’s suffering, but with the depth of his love: a love that knows us fully, even in our betrayal, weakness, and pain.This reflection draws us into that reality. Jesus is not distant from human suffering—he enters into it completely. He knows betrayal, humiliation, grief, and even the silence of God. And yet, in that very place, redemption breaks into the world.The question before us is personal: Will we open our hearts to him?As we enter Holy Week, may we move beyond familiarity and allow this story to awaken something deeper within us—leading us to repentance, renewal, and the assurance that we are his, and he will never let us go.📖 Scripture: Matthew 26–27 (Palm Sunday Liturgy) 🕊️ Preacher: The Rt.
