What do you do when God’s will doesn’t make sense—when obedience feels like loss, surrender feels like defeat, and everything in you wants to take control? In The Garden of Sacrifice, Pastor David Menard walks through Matthew 26, bringing us into the tension-filled moments of the Garden of Gethsemane and the arrest of Jesus. With vivid clarity, he reveals the humility of Christ, the pain of betrayal, and the intentional, unwavering love that led Jesus to the cross. From Judas’ kiss to Peter’s impulsive resistance, we see both the brokenness of humanity and the stunning reality that Jesus willingly chose sacrifice—not as a victim, but as Savior.

This message invites you to look deeper at your own heart and ask where self-will may be resisting God’s greater plan. It challenges you to trust God even when you don’t understand Him, and to surrender control in moments that feel unjust or uncertain. As you listen, you’ll be confronted, encouraged, and reminded that it is the love of Christ that transforms us from the inside out. Step into this powerful teaching and discover what it truly means to follow Jesus in the garden of sacrifice—because what He chose then changes everything for you now.
