Ever wondered what Jesus was really facing in the Garden of Gethsemane? It wasn’t just death—it was something infinitely heavier. In this powerful Bible study, we walk through Matthew 26:36-56, exploring Jesus’s darkest hour and the moment Judas betrayed him with a kiss.

What You’ll Discover:

* Why Jesus sweat drops of blood in the garden (and what that reveals about his humanity)

* The real meaning of “the cup” Jesus was about to drink

* How to actually fight temptation (watch AND pray—not just one or the other)

* Why Judas’s greeting was one of the most disrespectful acts in history

* What “speaking the truth in love” really means (and how it gets weaponized)

* Why Jesus didn’t call down 12 legions of angels to save himself

This Episode Addresses:

* The false teaching that Jesus didn’t have a real body

* Why your resolutions aren’t enough to keep you from falling away

* How Jesus empathizes with every weakness you face

* The weight of what Christ actually suffered for you

* Why the Garden of Gethsemane is called “the garden of crushing”
