We are continuing our series called, “Bad Guys of the Bible.” Throughout this series, we are looking at villains so that we can learn from their mistakes and where they went wrong. This week, we are looking Pontius Pilate.
Every week in the Creed, we say that Jesus “suffered under Pontius Pilate.” Pilate participated in Jesus’ crucifixion because he refused to accept the responsibility of his position. Pilate wanted to get out of the situation more than he wanted to do what was right and true.
Pray today for the grace to wholeheartedly accept your responsibilities even when they are challenging and uncomfortable.
