The Question That Defines Easter

Palm Sunday wasn’t a peaceful parade—it was a desperate cry for rescue. We unpack the tension, confusion, and deeper meaning behind Jesus’ entrance and the question that still matters: Who is He?

Curt Harlow

For the past 13 years Curt Harlow has served as one of the Senior Pastors of Bayside Church. With 9 campuses (primarily in the Sacramento area) and over 17,000 people in regular attendance Bayside is one of the fastest growing churches on the west coast. Before coming to Bayside Curt spent almost three decades working as a missionary to students attending secular college campuses. His current responsibilities at Bayside include planting the church's newest campus in Auburn, CA. Curt communicates in a hilarious style that will make you laugh hard and then think even harder. Most of all, he will challenge you to find grace inspired ways to apply truth in everyday life. He has been married to Kelly, his graphic designer wife and partner in ministry, for 36 years. They have three adult children.

Host

Dena Davidson

Dena Davidson loves Jesus. She has the best husband in the world. She’s mom to the cutest kids. She loves her big family more than anything. She has her dream job. She loves learning, reading, the British flag, philosophy, and running charades. She can’t multitask. Her favorite TV show is The West Wing. Her husband takes her on adventures. Officially, she is the Discipleship Director of Thrive College at Bayside Church. Unofficially, her office is a place of laughter, crying, and the peculiar mess of making disciples.

Guest

Jason Dixon

Jason Dixon serves as Chief of Staff for Bayside’s Blue Oaks and Adventure campuses. Born and raised in Georgia (don’t hold that against him), he spent most of his childhood on a ball field or basketball court. He chased a dream of playing professional baseball — and while reality eventually caught up with him, the journey led to something even better: meeting his incredible wife, Shaylen, at the University of Georgia. While at UGA, Jason served for six years in campus ministry with the Wesley Foundation, which shaped much of his heart for ministry and discipleship. After that, he spent 11.5 amazing years as a pastor at Southside Church in Peachtree City, Georgia — six of those as Lead Pastor — walking alongside people and helping build a church that loved those far from God. Jason and Shaylen have two awesome kids, Micah and Selah, and they’re loving this new adventure on the West Coast. When he’s not at church, you’ll probably find him on the golf course, skiing a mountain, enjoying the outdoors, or chasing down a really good cup of coffee.
