WATCH SERMON:

In this Palm Sunday message from Redemption Life Fellowship, we continue our series in the Gospel of Mark by tracing Mark 12:12–14:11 under the theme “Following Jesus – Sideways Religion and a Shaking World.” From trap-questions in the temple and corrupt religious leaders who “devour widows’ houses,” to Jesus’ warnings about deception, persecution, and coming judgment in Mark 13, and the costly devotion of the woman who anoints Him in Bethany, this sermon shows what happens when the earthly kingdom drives religion sideways, mocks sincere worship, and threatens the well-being of God’s people. Listeners are invited to stay spiritually awake, anchor their hearts in Jesus’ faithful word, and trust that He will uphold and sustain them in a hostile, shaking world—just as He Himself walked the road of betrayal, suffering, and the cross before rising in victory.
