The Garden of Gethsemane

Mar 13, 2022    Reverend David L. Ledford, III

From the Passover Seder, Jesus and 11 of his disciples go out into the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. Did you ever notice how rarely Jesus did something alone? Jesus knew the importance of support, love and company. He knew the importance of friends. Now, as his hours dwindle to a precious few, he asks his 3 closest friends to come and be with him while he fully feels his feelings. Peter, James and John were asked to be with him, stay awake with him and keep watch for him. Who is your Peter, James or John? And are you being called to be a Peter, James or John for someone else?
