S22 Ep 14Sermon Sunday, March 8, 2026, by Rev. Joyce Shin

Due to a glitch in the recording, you will hear a gap shortly after the scripture reading and prayer. The words that Rev. Shin spoke in this gap were: "He is present when Jesus speaks of his body and blood, when Jesus breaks and shares bread, and when Jesus announces he will be betrayed. It is an intimate scene, made even more so in the Gospel of John by the fact that Jesus has just washed his disciples’ feet. Judas, one of the twelve disciples, has been cherished just as the others. And so, when Jesus says just a few verses earlier in the chapter, 'The one who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me' (13:18b), he is quoting scripture, in which the psalmist says, 'Even my bosom friend in whom I trusted, who ate of my bread, has lifted the heel against me, (Psalm 41:9). Jesus knows that Judas is about to turn his back on him and walk away." To listen to the full Lord's Day service, search for "Swarthmore Presbyterian Church."
