Day 3 - The Betrayal

READ:  Matthew 26:14-16

¹⁴ Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve disciples, went to the leading priests ¹⁵ and asked, “How much will you pay me to betray Jesus to you?” And they gave him thirty pieces of silver. ¹⁶ From that time on, Judas began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

REFLECT:

• Do you think Judas Iscariot understood the worth of who Jesus was?
• Have you ever hurt someone who loves you?
• How do you think Jesus felt, being betrayed by one of his disciples?
• What are some ways we hurt the heart of Jesus today?

Take some time to think about all Jesus was getting ready to go through and how he must of felt being sold out for money by one of his disciples.  Yet, Jesus still loved and sacrificed, even though he was betrayed.

RESPOND:

In our passage today, Judas talked to others to betray Jesus.

How can you talk to others to communicate the true worth of Jesus?

Identify another family that you can communicate the worth of Jesus to by inviting them to church this Easter.

As a family, pray for them today, and each day this week.
