In Gethsemane
“Gethsemane” means “place of crushing”
During this season of crisis, social isolation, challenge, and trial in the life of our world, we want to be intentional to meet all of us where we are. We will be preaching through a series on Jesus in the Garden. As Jesus was crushed, so we are going through a season of “Crushing.” This mini-series (hopefully a short series) will address how to endure the hardship of life during this season. We’re using the word “Season” because we believe that this is not a new norm. It is a season for all of our lives that we are all going through together. Each of us will have a different story to tell at the end of it, so the question is…what will your story be? Will you freak out, endure, or thrive because of this season? We hope and pray you will not only endure, but that you will use it as a springboard to propel you forward with a greater sense of clarity, purpose, wisdom, and desire for life and relationships ahead. We are “In Gethsemane” together. And Jesus is right here with us in the midst of it.
