The Palm Sunday teaching about how Jesus showed incredible courage entering Jerusalem that day. Jesus already knew how the story was going to end, what going to Jerusalem would ultimately mean; despite all the pain and suffering that awaited him, Jesus chose to go to Jerusalem, to die on the cross in our place. Jesus Christ is our greatest example of the Biblical virtue of courage.

A Queen's Stand

In his upcoming book Overcoming Your Shadow Mission, John Ortberg explains how each of the main players in the book of Esther faced a critical choice.  Each person had to choose between a higher calling and a shadow mission - a dark, trivial or self-serving path.  Xerxes lived for his image.  Haman lived for an ego-driven quest for more, more, more.  Mordecai and Esther had the courage to use their gifts for something greater.  The bad news is that without help, all of us will eventual succumb to our shadow missions.  The good news is that Jesus understands, having resisted the incredible pull of his own shadow mission. 

What’s your shadow mission?  Who is your Mordecai?
