The People Jesus Defended

The People Jesus Defended, When Everyone Else Accused

Over and over, Jesus steps between the vulnerable and the crowd that would shame them: a woman dragged out to be stoned, children the disciples tried to send away, a sinner weeping at His feet while the host sneered, a poor widow no one noticed. When others accused or dismissed, He stood with the lowly. Each page below tells one story of the defense of Christ, and what it shows about whose side He is on.
