Trinity Church of Portland - Sermons The Humble King Has Come
In this Advent message, Pastor Andrey Gorban invites us to look again at the arrival of our King and to see not just thatHe came, but how He came.
Drawing from Zechariah 9:9, this sermon contrasts the kings the world expects with the King God promised. While earthly rulers arrive with power, spectacle, and conquest, God’s King comes righteous and bringing salvation—humble, gentle, and riding on a donkey. This is a King who does not intimidate or dominate, but who gives Himself for His people.
From the quiet fulfillment of God’s long-standing promises to Jesus’ triumphal entry and march toward the cross, this message calls us to behold the beauty of God’s plan done God’s way. If your faith feels stale, your joy muted, or the Christmas season has become routine, this sermon invites you to fix your eyes once more on Jesus—the humble and lowly King, our Savior, and our Emmanuel, God with us.
