Contributed by Michael Tkachuk on Oct 11, 2020

Faith Like A Centurion

Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Aug 14, 2024

What Will You Do With Jesus?

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 14, 2013

In the beginning of John 19 we see three different examples of what people did with Jesus. The soldiers mocked him, Pilate didn't want to deal with him and the Jews rejected him. What about us? What will we do with Jesus?
