Worthy Suffering (Acts 5:12-42)
The question we face is not if we will suffer, or when, but how we will suffer. We need to be worthy sufferers. Acts 5 provides a stunning example of worthy suffering as the Apostles face opposition, threats, and a possible death penalty for preaching in the name of Jesus.

O Come, All Ye Faithful (Mk 14:26-72)
Before and during the arrest and trial of Jesus, his closest disciples all fall away. It's by the faithfulness of Jesus that any of us can stand.

The Burial of Jesus John 19:38-42

Jesus' Trial
In Jesus' Trial before the Sanhedrin, we learn that we must tell people that Jesus is innocent and that He is the Christ.

The Betrayal of Jesus (Mark 14:43 - 15:15)
We see in this passage a sharp contrast between Jesus and everyone else -- Judas, the disciples, the Sanhedrin, and Pilate. The fear and sin of others are on full display, but Jesus's glory and his confident trust in his Father are also clear. Jesus's suffering is the answer for the disciples' sin, and our own.
