Sunday's sermon turned into a blog post with audio and video:

Jesus instituted the New Covenant at the Last Supper, fulfilling God’s promise in Jeremiah 31:31-34. Learn how Christ’s words, “This is My body… This is the new covenant in My blood,” revealed the redemptive purpose of His death and forever changed how we understand communion. From the blood of the Old Covenant in Exodus to Jesus’s sacrifice on the cross, understand the deep spiritual meaning behind the bread and the cup and how they point to our salvation and eternal hope. If you’re a believer, whether you’ve taken communion for years or are learning about it for the first time, I hope this helps you remember and rejoice in Christ’s love for you.

Crowds followed Jesus everywhere—but crowds aren’t the same as disciples.
In the Gospels, people could be near Jesus physically while being far from Him spiritually. Jesus defines discipleship clearly: deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him (Luke 9:23; 14:27).
In this message, we look at the difference between being part of the crowd and truly belonging to Christ, and how Simon of Cyrene carrying the cross behind Jesus becomes a living picture of discipleship (Luke 23:26–27).

Question: Are you in the crowd—or are you following Christ?
Centuries before Jesus stood before Pilate, God gave a prophetic preview in Zechariah 11—including the shocking choice of a substitute and the tragic rejection of the true Shepherd.
