Text: Matthew 21:1-23:39
Speaker: Daniel Newby, M.Div., missionary and church consultant.
Fun fact: Rev. Newby has done missionary work in Senegal, Gambia, Haiti, Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Trinidad, and was the Conference Coordinator to States Cameroon!
Big picture: The closer Jesus travels to Jerusalem, and to his death, the greater opposition he faces. With every sermon, Jesus further proclaims the responsibility that comes with understanding his teaching. By failing to follow the teachings set before us by Christ, we fail to take part in the community of God's people. Like Jesus' parables, understanding requires a proper response.
