What do you do when you're facing suffering?

In Gethsemane, Jesus fell to the ground. He told his friends his soul was feeling overwhelmed. He asked God for a way out.

That's not weak faith. That's honesty.

In this message from the 8 Days series, we look at Mark 14 and what Jesus shows us about prayer, suffering, and what it means to follow God through your hardest moments.

You don't have to start with surrender. But you have to get there.

There are some things about God that you can only learn in Gethsemane.

Most of us intend to serve humbly. We intend to love without conditions. And then the moment arrives, and we find out who we actually are.In John 13, with hours left before the cross, Jesus didn't give a speech. He picked up a towel and washed feet. Including the feet of the man he knew would betray him. Including the feet of the man he knew would deny him three times before sunrise.In this episode we're asking: what does the gap between your good intentions and your faithful obedience actually look like? And what would it mean this week to pick up the towel?

Have you ever lost your cool? Vented your frustration or anger?

This week we look at the story where Jesus demonstrates that sometimes love requires disruption, but righteous anger must flow from deep relationship with God and concern for those being harmed.
