Listen "The Jesse Tree: A Better Priest & King"
Episode Synopsis
✨ A Priest. A King. A Mystery. ✨ Most Christians know about David the king… Aaron the priest… and Abraham the patriarch. But tucked inside Psalm 110 is one of the Bible’s greatest mysteries—one that unlocks why Jesus had to come, who He really is, and how He brings hope right into the middle of our deepest struggles.
This year we're using the idea of the Jesse Tree to walk through Advent. It's an old way of tracing the family line of Jesus through the Old Testament to show how everything in the OT is pointing forward to the arrival of Jesus.
Today we’re diving into a wild, prophetic Psalm that reveals a Messiah unlike anything Israel ever expected. A better Priest and a better King, one who conquers evil without and cleanses the evil within.
And yes… we’re even talking about Melchizedek.
📖 In This Message You’ll Discover:
🔥 Why Psalm 110 is the most quoted Old Testament passage in the New Testament
🔥 How a mysterious priest-king named Melchizedek foreshadows the coming Messiah
🔥 Why no human king, leader, pastor, or politician can fix what’s wrong with us
🔥 How Jesus is both the perfect King AND the perfect Priest—unlike any ruler or leader in history
🔥 What it means to surrender your brokenness, shame, and battles to the only One who can truly heal you
👑 If You’re Struggling Right Now…
This message is for you.
Wherever you feel surrounded—
a broken relationship,
an uncertain future,
a draining job,
a deep wound,
a nagging sin—
Jesus wants to rule right there.
Not after things get better.
Right in the midst of it.
