Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 19, 2018

How did Joseph become a member of the Sanhedrin and ultimately become a secret follower of Jesus? This first person presentation explores one possible explanation.

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 17, 2021

In taking Jesus to His new tomb Joseph was fulfilling the prophecy of Isa. 53:9, which said, "Men made His grave with the criminals, and He was with the rich in His death."

The danger of making a hero out of a man who does a great thing after a long time of doing nothing is that you give the impression that there was nothing lost by doing it that way. A man lives a life of sin, or of indifference to God's will, and suddenly he sees the light and is wondrously ...read more

Ever since Watergate that took down the 37th President of the United States, scandal and corruption stories often end with the word” gate” as a result. There was Nannygate, Deflategate, Grannygate, and Spygate. I invite you ...read more
