    The story of Jesus and His betrayal by Judas challenges us to consider the real truth about betrayal, and our personal struggle with it.

    "The Truth About Betrayal" Matthew 26:17-35 INTRODUCTION When you hear the word "betrayal", what do you think of? Do you think of --- Joseph, Jacob, David, Julius Caesar, Benedict Arnold, or perhaps someone close to you? To "betray" means "to prove faithless or treacherous to, as to a trust or ...read more

    Don’t Hang Your Judas! Have you ever been betrayed? I don’t mean some friend erred and let something you shared in confidence slip out. I mean stabbed in the back.

    Crisis: Dangerous Opportunity

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 14, 2001
    based on 39 ratings

    Jesus precipitated a crisis for others around Him: for Judas, for the disciples, for Peter. Their reactions are like ours -- confused -- but Jesus knows who He is in the midst of the crisis.

    I’m sure that you have heard many times now that the Chinese character that is usually translated by the English word “crisis” is actually made up of two components – one character that means “dangerous” and the other that means “opportunity.” Put “dangerous” and “opportunity” together, and you ...read more

    A First-Person Narrative (Judas) emphasizing the need to serve, instead of being served.

    This has been the longest night of my life! Let me tell you all about it, but before I do, I need to start from the beginning. Really, it all started when Jesus called me about 3 years ago.
