We’re walking through The Way of the Cross—the main experiences of Jesus’s last twenty-four hours, leading up to and culminating in his death. By meditating on the suffering and death of Jesus, we will appreciate Jesus’s redemptive suffering on our behalf and it will challenge us to live in response to it.

Sermon Notes
Caught between a riot and the religious rulers, Pilate has been outmaneuvered. Jesus must be condemned, if only to save his own job. Even if substituting an innocent Jesus for a guilty Barabbas offends his sense of justice, something strangely divine is taking place. Join us for “Jesus Judged” from Matthew 27:1-2, 11-26, as we walk the way of the cross with Jesus.
Sermon Notes
Last week, we saw Jesus’ courage under trial by the highest authorities. In contrast, Peter fears when he’s confronted by a servant girl. What do we learn from Peter’s failure and Jesus’ faithfulness that helps us in our trials? Join us in this sermon as we look at “Jesus Denied” from Matthew 26:69-75.

In this season of Lent, we’re journeying through the last twenty-four hours of Jesus’s life as he walked the way of the cross. After his betrayal, Jesus is arrested and put on trial where he’s falsely accused and horribly mistreated. Why does he endure these things? And what hope or encouragement is there for us in Jesus’ response to injustice? Join us for “Jesus Condemned” from Matthew 26:57-68.
Sermon Notes
In this season of Lent, we’re going to walk through the last twenty-four hours of Jesus’s life as he walked the way of the cross. It begins with a betrayal, when everything seems to spin out of control. And yet, if Jesus were not betrayed, how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled? This is our study of “Jesus Betrayed” from Matthew 26:47-56.
