About this episode

This episode discusses the trial of Jesus as described in John 18 and 19, highlighting the injustices He faced and the fulfillment of prophecies.

Life isn’t fair. And this is very obvious as we look at this story in John 18 and 19. Because Jesus goes to trial for crimes He did not commit, and eventually gets sentenced to a death He did not deserve. So today, we’re studying the time when Jesus goes to trial. We’ll see what happened and how Jesus’ prophecies came true, and then at the end, I’ll give you 5 practical takeaways from this story.
