He was a centurion, a member of the elite Praetorian Guards, charged with keeping and maintaining peace in the Roman outpost of Jerusalem, and part of his job included the execution of criminals.

Passover week began as it did every year with Jews from every outlying district flooding Jerusalem. Normally it was peaceful during Passover, despite the increased crowds. But this year was different. Tensions rose to fever pitch following the arrival of the controversial rabbi – Jesus of Nazareth – who rode into Jerusalem on a donkey as crowds sur...

So, with tears caught in his weathered cheeks, he let the memories assault his body. As Captain of the Guards, he bore the responsibility to apprehend Jesus by ord...

Most of all, he was disgusted by Judas’ plan to identify Jesus with a kiss. But this was his job, and he wore the medals to testify to his unquestioning obedience to orders. The sad...
This once proud centurion fell to his knees, and tears turned to wracking sobs as the next hours played out in his mind in excruciating detail.

And it was in that instant that there was a changing of the guard. He walked up Golgotha a Roman centurion and an executioner. After gently taking the body of Jesus down from the cross and entrusting it to Joseph of Arimathea for burial, he walked down Golgotha forever changed. He cried now for forgiveness with every fiber of his being, knowing it ...
Suddenly, tears flowed again, this time with joyous abandon. Forgiveness, peace, and all-consuming love filled him. The changing of the guard completed, he rose, discarded his medal-encrusted armor and his helmet, shield, and spear. This Roman centurion of the elite Praetorian Guard was now a humble follower of Jesus Christ, Messiah, Risen Son of G...
