A Life of Betrayal
THE KISS OF JUDAS
Featuring Dr. Stephen Phinney & Douglas Starbrook
From Betrayal to Belief
Growing up, betrayal felt like a recurring chapter in my story. Family, friends—even those I thought I could trust—let me down at every turn. Sometimes it was subtle; other times it cut deep. Words twisted, promises broken, kindness used as leverage. I learned early how to wear armor, how to smile through disappointment, and how to keep my heart just out of reach. I didn’t realize it at the time, but this web of hurt was shaping more than just my relationships—it was shaping my view of Yeshua.
I heard the message of His love, His faithfulness, His presence—but I couldn’t embrace it. How could I trust a Savior I couldn’t see when everyone I could see had left me questioning love altogether? My faith started out cautious, hesitant. I believed, but from a distance. I prayed, but with guarded hope. I expected Yeshua to turn away like the others had—and in some moments, I even assumed He already had.
