His Plan - Palm Sunday 2025 | Pastor Steve Wilburn | John 11 | Core Church LA

Pastor Steve Wilburn's Palm Sunday message "His Plan" (John 11–12) explains how Jesus intentionally delays, demonstrates costly devotion, and receives public praise as part of God's redemptive purpose. Using Lazarus' resurrection, Mary's costly anointing, and the triumphal entry, he shows that God's timing displays glory, true worship costs, and public acclaim can be fleeting. The sermon issues a call to repentance, invites attenders to Good Friday and Easter services, and offers new-believer resources.

He warns about a culture that removes God, urges Christians not to fight people but to submit to God, and closes with an invitation to surrender to Christ for breakthrough.
