Welcome to Gospel Rant!

Let's walk with Jesus those final steps again.

Whirlwind days: Hosanna crowds, waving branches, Jerusalem hope. Yet beneath cheers, fractured—they craved rescuer on their terms. King of imagination, not suffering Servant.

Upper room: final meal heavy with meaning. Broken bread. Lifted wine. Betrayer named. Basin water. Son of God washing dusty feet. Departure words. Invisible kingdom. They didn't grasp.

Loneliness fogged in.

Post‑meal Psalms rise: "Hosanna. Blessed is He who comes." Irony stung—prophetic words, unaware singers.

Down Kidron slope. Across the brook. Gethsemane—"olive press." Pressure fitting.

Jesus breaks the silence: "Tonight you all fall away." Protests. He knows better. How alone already?

Takes Peter, James, and John farther. Past midnight. Twenty hours sleepless. Jesus is beyond tired.

"My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch." (Matt 26:38)

Goes farther. Falls facedown.

“My Father, if possible, may this cup be taken from me…”

And my Top 10 Prayer #2:

“Yet not my will—Yours be done.”

In two weeks, I will begin a series through the Book of Judges. I am calling it Breaking Badly after the hit TV show a while back. Relevant, important, and not what you will usually hear. See you next time.
