#1015: Fifth Sunday in Lent (Year C) - April 6, 2025

As we approach the fifth Sunday in Lent, this episode of Sermon Brainwave dives deep into love, betrayal, and the weight of Jesus’ final days. Join Profs. Rolf Jacobson, Karoline Lewis, and Matt Skinner as they explore the tension between Mary’s extravagant love and Judas’ tragic betrayal, reflecting on what these contrasting responses reveal about discipleship, grace, and faith.
