MAUNDY THURSDAY | The Last Supper & The Garden
by Robert Barrett on April 2nd, 2026
Thursday evening opened with Passover preparations. The disciples asked Jesus where they should make ready the Passover meal, and He directed them to a man carrying a water jar — an unusual sight, since water carrying was women's work — who would lead them to the upper room. The specificity of the instructions points to deliberate, pre-arranged coordination. Jesus was controlling every detail.The ...  Read More

by Apostle Robert H. Barrett on April 1st, 2026
Wednesday of Passion Week is traditionally called Spy Wednesday — the day Judas Iscariot went to the chief priests and formally negotiated the betrayal of Jesus.

The Sadducees (who denied the resurrection) attempted t...  Read More

HOLY MONDAY | The Cleansing of the Temple
by Apostle Robert H. Barrett on March 30th, 2026
On His way back into Jerusalem Monday morning, Jesus stopped at a fig tree heavy with leaves — a tree that appeared fruitful from a distance but produced nothing on close inspection. He cursed it, and by the next morning it had withered from the roots. This was not a random act. It was a living parable aimed directly at Israel's religious leadership: visible, impressive, but spiritually barren.Whe...  Read More

PALM SUNDAY | The King Enters Jerusalem
by Apostle Robert H. Barrett on March 30th, 2026
The 10th of Nisan held enormous significance for every Jewish family in Jerusalem.

He was presenting Himself as the Lamb of God.The road from Beth...  Read More

by Pastor Robert Barrett on January 25th, 2026
Reading: Genesis 3Key Verse: Genesis 3:10 — “And he said, ‘I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself.’”When Adam sinned, his first reaction wasn’t repentance—it was fear.
