Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Apr 2, 2018

Gethsemane Series

Contributed by Roshelle Brenneise on Sep 1, 2023

The cross wasn’t a tragic mistake. It didn’t “happen” to Jesus. He wasn’t a victim of circumstance. Jesus died because He deliberately chose to lay down His life – and he made that choice at Gethsemane. The war was not over, but the battle was won at Gethsemane.

September 02, 2023 Today we are going to conclude the Gospels section of our series with Gethsemane. The Passover meal was over. Judas had left the group to make arrangements for the betrayal of Jesus. Now as the little party made their way to the Mount of Olives, Jesus made a startling ...read more
