In this final “Come and See” Week 12 discussion, the Grow Group reflects on the events surrounding Jesus’ trial, crucifixion, and resurrection as told in the Gospels. The conversation begins lightheartedly with personal life updates, then moves into deeper reflections on the injustice of Jesus’ trial before Pilate and Herod, Peter’s denial, the crowd’s choice of Barabbas, and the parallels to modern “cancel culture.” They explore the persistence of Jesus’ love despite betrayal, the thief on the cross’s last-minute faith, and the torn temple veil’s significance. The group considers human resistance to belief due to accountability, the call to live “on mission” as in the Great Commission, and the importance of church as an active, relational body rather than a passive event. They close with encouragement to join small groups, a preview of their upcoming Romans study, personal prayer requests, and a reminder to maintain daily walk with God.If you want to follow along with our daily scripture readings, Come and See devotional guides are available on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.00:00 – 00:02 | Introductions & life updates: wedding prep, teaching, humor.00:03 – 00:04 | Final “Come and See” week intro; standout passages.00:04 – 00:06 | Kangaroo court banter leads to Jesus’ trial before leaders.00:06 – 00:09 | Pilate & Herod find no fault yet yield to crowd pressure.00:09 – 00:10 | Mob mentality & cancel culture comparison.00:10 – 00:11 | High priest’s prophetic statement about Jesus’ blood.00:11 – 00:13 | Even criminals need prayer; redemption message.00:13 – 00:15 | Peter’s denial shows both courage and failure; absent disciples.00:15 – 00:17 | Jesus’ love unchanged toward Peter & Judas.00:17 – 00:20 | Thief on the cross shifts from mocking to faith.00:20 – 00:23 | Peter’s restoration: Greek word study on love.00:23 – 00:26 | Torn temple veil’s meaning & aftermath questions.00:26 – 00:29 | Priests bribe guards to lie about resurrection.00:29 – 00:32 | People reject truth to avoid accountability.00:32 – 00:33 | “Throne of the heart” – choosing self vs. God.00:34 – 00:37 | Great Commission: living on mission as disciples.00:37 – 00:39 | Peter’s “Forrest Gump moment” rushing to Jesus.00:39 – 00:41 | Faith maturing; community accountability.00:41 – 00:44 | Church as active participation, not passive event.00:44 – 00:46 | Testimonies of small group spiritual growth.00:46 – 00:47 | Preview of “Victorious” Romans study after Labor Day.00:47 – 00:50 | Prayer requests: school year, family, health.00:51 – 00:53 | Closing prayer & farewell; stay in the Word.
