Betrayal & Denial

A message from the series “Gospel of John: Conclusion: Part One”, given by Pastor Scott Austin on May 8, 2022.

The story of Jesus’s arrest includes two friends who fail him: Judas, who betrays him to the Romans, and Peter, who denies his friendship altogether. A story like this invites us to imagine what it would like to be failed by our friends—or to be the friend who fails.
