Episode Description
Week 3 | The Gospel According to Pilate (2015)
We're in a series of sermons from Darrell that correspond with Lent and the Easter season. It is called "The Theatre of Glory" and was delivered by Darrell in 2015 at First Baptist Church in Vancouver.
In this Lenten message from John 18:28–19:22, Darrell walks us into the charged and complicated encounter between Jesus and Pontius Pilate. Rather than painting Pilate as merely cynical, Darrell helps us feel the political pressure, fear, and confusion he faced, and shows how simply standing in the presence of Jesus began to move him toward truth. As Pilate declares, “I find no guilt in him,” “Behold the man,” and “Behold your king,” we’re invited to consider our own lives: in the tense and compromising spaces we inhabit, what will we say about the One who stands before us?
