Gathering 175: "When a Protest Demands a Response" // Rev. Tony Minear, Ph.D.

Published: March 29, 2021, 11 p.m.

The emotive power of a public protest can move us to rise up and take a stand, especially when the cause is close to our heart. But this introspection often forces us to re-examine our own values. When Jesus entered Jerusalem, his very presence provoked action by the Romans, and set into motion a wave of demonstrations and protest. But did it happen just as the Bible suggests with followers waving palms and shouts of “Hosannah”? Join us this Palm Sunday as Pastor Tony Minear, Ph.D. explores the powerful impact of protest. Discover how protest can force you to confront your own self-identity and what your response to the collective says about your value system. Although the method and cause may vary, protests today just as in Jesus’ time are not likely to be ignored.    Recorded in Phoenix, AZ on 03/27/21  Preaching: Rev.
