The Disciple: Judas Iscariot
Aug 6, 2023 • Rev. Sarah Clark
The story of Judas is a very human story. He allows fear to move him. He faces torture and death by aligning
himself with Jesus and does what many of us would do – chooses safety and betrayal instead of the path of
suffering for a fight that seems impossible to win. Judas’ relationship with Jesus is fraught, complicated, and
ultimately tragic, and yet he forces us to face our own hesitation to follow Jesus when the cost is high.
