About this episode
In this powerful teaching from John 18:1-14, Chad Prather walks you through the darkest night in history—the Garden of Gethsemane—where obedience met betrayal and surrender became victory. Through raw, heartfelt teaching and stream-of-consciousness reflection, you'll see how Jesus turned weakness into strength and captivity into control. From the moment He stepped into the garden to the moment He was bound and led away, every act of Jesus was a lesson in divine courage and quiet power. This message will challenge you to lay down your sword, pick up your cup, and trust that the God who leads you into the garden will also lead you out again. Discover how obedience costs, how betrayal refines, and how true strength is never found in control—but in surrender. The garden isn't your end; it's your beginning.
