“This is the day that the Lord has made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.”
A Bible study on God’s ‘‘unstoppable kingdom’’ that explores Acts 19’s account of new believers renouncing occult practices and shows how a prevailing, kingdom-centered faith—modeled by Abraham and grounded in the church—enables believers to overcome sin, receive God’s provision, and walk in victory.

“The crowd's 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord' is identified as coming from Psalm 118:26.”
Pastor Steve Wilburn preaches a Palm Sunday message reflecting on Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem as a ‘memorable event,’ drawing three main lessons: Jesus wept over a people who would reject him, he zealously cleansed the temple, and he issued a sober warning calling for wholehearted commitment to him. The sermon connects the Palm Sunday celebration to the gospel: Jesus’ sacrificial death and resurrection, forgiveness of sin, and the call to repentance and authentic discipleship.
