Jesus’ Crucifixion: Compassion or Bitterness?

Maybe you’ve read the story of Jesus’ Crucifixion.  There are several elements to the story, but Mark Driscoll, Lead Pastor of Mars Hill Church in Seattle, WA, drills down on one key factor of Jesus’ Crucifixion.  While visiting Israel, Mark learned something that shed light on a passage of Scripture that describes the scene depicted in John 19:28-30.  I always assumed that when Jesus was given wine on a sponge just before he died, that it was a last act of compassion.  It’s actually quite the opposite.  Watch as Mark shares with us what he learned about what Jesus was really put through in that moment.
