“The Tenacious Welcome of Heaven” - Glorious Disruption

This Sunday’s message is called “The Tenacious Welcome of Heaven.” That word “tenacious” is important. No one, no power, no king, is going to stop Jesus from saving lost and broken sinners. They are His family and He will stop at nothing to bring His people safely home. We have many adopted children in our church. Praise God!

Some of the stories of determination to bring those children out of harm’s way and safely home are actually stunning. The perseverance! The pain! The passion! That is why some of you already understand what I mean by “tenacious welcome.” Jesus marched into an inhospitable world to extend the welcome of the kingdom of God to broken and lost sinners scattered throughout the nations.

One of the things that ought to bolster our faith as we seek to fulfill our mission at Waterbrooke Church is that Jesus is already “all in.” This is Palm Sunday, as Jesus rode into Jerusalem, even as the crowds cheered, He knew what He had to do. And He did it! Let’s rejoice and give ourselves joyfully to the cause of Christ.
