Palm Sunday 2026: When the King of Peace Meets Global Conflict

  Palm Sunday 2026: When the King of Peace Meets Global Conflict Every Palm Sunday, we, as Christians, reenact one of the most powerful and provocative scenes in history. We wave branches and sing hosannas, commemorating Jesus's dramatic, prophetic entry into Jerusalem. But in this Holy Week of 2026, the contrast between the scene we celebrate and the reality we inhabit is stark, almost jarring. The world we see today is defined not by the "King of Peace," but by the complex machinations of global conflict. Tensions remain high across the Middle East, with new lockdowns near holy sites making headlines this week. Geopolitical proxy wars dominate the news cycle. The "rumors of wars" that Jesus spoke about (Matthew 24:6) seem louder than the hosannas. How do we, as people of faith, square our celebration of Jesus’s peacemaking mission with a world that seems perpetually on the brink of violence? The Two Entries: A Political Paradox To truly understand Palm Sunday,...

The Bible Project's: The Gospel of Matthew

 "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."

-Matthew 11:28

Matthew, the tax collector, is one of Jesus' 12 apostles and has structured his book so interestingly.  The points he is trying to drive is that Jesus is the Messiah that came from the line of David, that Jesus is the new Moses and that Jesus is God-with-us or Emmanuel. 

See Bible Project's summarized videos below about the Gospel of Matthew.

The Good News

  T he only good news that we ought to know and remember is that Jesus Christ had already won the war against sin and death.  He has made it possible for us to join Him in the afterlife.  All we need now to do is accept Him as He is.  God is alive today and it may be sometimes be difficult to see this.  The world and its demonic nature has still made it look like that only worldly things matter and that the ultimate goal of each one is to achieve their own personal happiness.  This is the biggest lie of all, that we should do all to make us happy. Individual happiness at the expense of someone else is the biggest deception of all. The truth is, our lives are never really about us.  It is ultimately about God and about others.  It is about how you can provide and give joy even at our own expense. This is the model of ultimate and genuine love that Jesus shown us at the cross. "Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s frie...

The deadly sin of sloth

  In the labyrinthine corridors of the human spirit, there dwells a sinister phantom known as sloth, a spectral wraith that cloaks the soul in the shroud of indolence and inertia. Like a shadow that creeps across the sepulcher of the mind, sloth casts its pall over the aspirations and endeavors of mortals, rendering them prisoners of their own lethargy and torpor. In the bleak landscape of human existence, sloth emerges as a specter of desolation, a ghastly apparition that haunts the recesses of the heart with its icy grip. In the annals of biblical lore, sloth is depicted as a yawning abyss that swallows the soul whole, leaving behind naught but the hollow echo of wasted potential and unfulfilled promise. In the book of Ecclesiastes, King Solomon muses, " The lazy man says, 'There is a lion outside! I shall be slain in the streets!'" (Ecclesiastes 22:13) . In this bleak pronouncement, Solomon unveils the self-imposed prison of sloth, wherein the slothful soul cowers ...
