Barabbas or Jesus

The choice between Barabbas and Jesus, a choice that I am suggesting is a central choice in the whole gospel story, is not a choice between a man who took a political route and a man who took a spiritual route. It is not a choice between a man who wanted outer change and a man who called for inner change. It is a choice between a man who changed too little and a man who changed everything.

(Sam Wells, Power and Passion, The Archbishop of Canterbury's Official 2007 Lent Book)
