The Humble King: Lessons from Palm Sunday and the Road to Easter

The Humble King: Lessons from Palm Sunday and the Road to Easter

Author: Ian Faith, Galen Balinski, C.S. Lewis: Spiritual Warfare and Christianity March 30, 2026 Duration: 13:52

In this episode of the Screwtape Letters Podcast, Ian celebrates Easter week and talks about Jesus accepting what God had laid before him. Ian reflects on the importance of establishing “constants” in life that keep us grounded. Drawing inspiration from The Screwtape Letters, he explains how steady rhythms, such as regular church attendance or small group gatherings, can ground a person spiritually and emotionally. He shares from personal experience, noting how his Wednesday morning men’s coffee group has served as a stabilizing habit, and encourages listeners to build similar traditions that endure even when life feels uncertain.

Ian also provides updates on his book, Confronting Evil in Our Time, celebrating its success in reaching the top of its category on Amazon and its wider availability through other retailers. He introduces Micheal Blueitt as a new co-host who is contributing to the “Lenses” series, aimed at helping listeners interpret life through a Christ-centered perspective. Alongside this, Ian continues to address themes of anxiety and faith, offering practical encouragement and resources to help listeners trust in God’s provision.

The central focus of the episode is the story of Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem, as recorded in Matthew 21. Ian highlights the significance of Jesus choosing to ride a donkey, symbolizing humility rather than earthly power, and challenges listeners to follow God’s calling even when it involves personal risk or discomfort. The episode closes with a prayer for Easter week, asking for healing, peace for the anxious, and renewed faith for those struggling, urging listeners to live out their beliefs with visible action and trust.
