“Whatch gonna do?” Matthew 27:32-33

“Whatch gonna do?” Matthew 27:32-33

As we continue to draw closer to the celebration of Easter, we watch as Jesus draws closer to the cross. Today Jesus walks the “Via Dolorosa” (“the way of Suffering”) from Pilate’s court to the hill of the crucifixion. Along the way we are introduced to Simon, an accidental participant in the Jesus story. Carrying the cross was not what he set out to do that day, but it was the unlikely twist presented to him.
