In a cultural moment where all that we had long placed our trust in seems to be eroding, we ask the question Pilate asked, “What is truth?” John details a conversation between Pilate and Jesus amidst the swirling accusations against Jesus. To get away from the crowd Pilate summons Jesus inside the palace and asks him questions in a seeming attempt to understand what is going on. Jesus makes it plain, he has come to “testify to the truth.” To which Pilate responds, “What is truth?”
His question has lingered on the lips of humanity since. Today we talk about “your truth” and “my truth.” Truth, it seems, has become whatever one believes it to be – which puts individuals at the center. But maybe there is a truth that’s bigger than all of us. That which cannot be argued against or wished away because it is the ultimate reality. And what is that reality? That’s the question we will wrestle with.
