About this listen
Episode Title: "When Folly Rose Victorious"
Scripture: Matthew 21:1-22
Series: The King and His Kingdom
Preacher: Jerry Cisar
What if the path Jesus walked—the one marked by love for enemies, forgiveness over vengeance, and sacrifice over self-preservation—actually looked like failure? To the first disciples, it did. Jesus preached radical mercy and refused to fight back. Then He died. No armies. No rescue. Just silence.
And yet… on the third day, folly rose victorious. We’ll see what the Resurrection accomplishes: God the Father raised Jesus to declare, once and for all, that the seemingly foolish way of the cross is the way of the kingdom.
The Resurrection is about both Jesus and His Lordship and every one of His followers. It justifies, empowers, and sends us—worshipping and doubting, faithful and failing, variegated believers who are learning to walk the same path. If Jesus is Lord—and He is—then what?
We go and in our going we follow. And we trust that one day, God will raise what looked like folly into eternal glory.
