Peter Denies Christ – Easter Story

Study comes today from Matthew 26:69-75 and I believe you’ll find it interesting. The story of Peter denying Christ is one we’ve heard before, but it’s worth taking another look.

Jesus Wears a Crown of Thorns – Easter Story

In Matthew 27:27-31, we see the harsh reality of Jesus’ suffering. Before the crucifixion, Roman soldiers mocked Him and pressed a crown of thorns onto His head.
