Today’s episode of the Resident Strangers podcast reflects on John 13:1–14 (NIV), as Rich offers some context around what many know as Maundy Thursday—the night Jesus shared a final meal with His disciples before the cross.
One of the most powerful moments from this evening is when Jesus, fully aware of what was to come, took the posture of a servant and washed His disciples’ feet. His love for them was unwavering—He loved them “to the very end.”
And perhaps most striking of all: Jesus even washed Judas’ feet, knowing betrayal was just hours away.
This would be His final moment with them before the resurrection. And what He chose to show them—humility, compassion, and selfless service—continues to speak volumes to us today as His followers.
If this episode speaks to you, we’d be so grateful if you’d subscribe, leave a review, and share the podcast with others.
Join us tomorrow for Devotional 7 as we approach the cross with hearts full of gratitude.
