After all of the planning and scheming, Jesus found himself in the custody of the Jewish authorities. It was time for them to present their case against him. There was just one problem: There was no case. In his Gospel, John does not tell us about how Jesus went before the Sanhedrin and was accused of claiming to be God. John gives us a conversation between Jesus and one man, Annas, the power behind the High priest. The conversation does not go as Annas planned.

Come and Get Me
Jesus was experiencing the longest two days of his life. He had spent all evening in a room with his closest friends, trying to prepare them for his coming death. When Jesus had said all he could, he and his disciples went to a garden, where a group of Jewish authorities and Roman soldiers would soon arrive to arrest him. They were going to show Jesus who was really in charge of God's people, but things did not go as planned. Join us as we take a look at the arrest of Jesus and learn a valuable lesson about the world we live in today.

One More Thing Before I Go
Anyone who knows the story of the arrest, crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus knows what happened in the garden to kick this cycle off. Jesus went by himself to pray that God would come up with a different plan. He didn't want to go through the suffering of the cross, but he would if God willed it. His sweat turned to drops of blood. An angel appeared to give him comfort and strength. This is an impactful story that speak to all that Jesus had to endure. That is why it is in all of the gospels...except for John. John gives us a completely different account of Jesus' prayer before his arrest. In his account, Jesus does not pray for an alternative ending, he instead prays that God would be glorified, that the disciples would be blessed, and that future believers would be one. It could not be more different than it is. Why did John give us this account? Why did Jesus pray these prayers? Join us as we explore Jesus' final moments with his disciples before his arrest.
