Walking in the Shadow of Unmet Expectations

Sermon Series: Walking with Jesus

Pastor Don Petker

The Palm Sunday Story highlights 3 expectations that Jesus longs for:

·         An Expectation of Worship

·         An Expectation of Fruitfulness

·         An Expectation of Faithfulness

Discussion Questions

1.       Palm Sunday is a day of great expectations, most of which were unmet.   What expectations do you bring to this day?

2.       Why, do you think, did Jesus orchestrate such a public, high-profile entrance into Jerusalem, at Passover no less?

3.       Jesus still has an expectation of worship.  How will you worship in this Easter Week?

4.       What does fruitfulness look like in your life?  How about the life of our church?

5.       The temptation is always to be faithful to the ‘things’ of faith rather than to the author of faith.   What are some of the ways we do that?  How do we guard against ‘misguided faithfulness?
