So I have all this interesting information, along with all kinds of interesting thoughts but what do I do with them? Ah, the weekly Thursday sermon prep "problem." This week is going to be more challenging than most.

I am looking at the passion of Christ through the eyes of four men: Peter, Judas, the centurion, and Joseph of Arimathea. Irony! The two followers of Jesus (Peter and Judas) abandon him. The hardened soldier confesses him, and Joseph, a secret disciple we are told by John, boldly comes out (along with Nicodemus) to take the body of Jesus for burial. What does all that mean? Not exactly sure!
