John 18:1-11

We live in an age obsessed with comfort and the avoidance of pain. But Jesus, in the garden of Gethsemane, faced the most bitter cup imaginable—and chose to drink it.

Pastor Chuck Swindoll walks through John 18:1–11, the scene of Jesus’ arrest, to examine the cup the Father gave His Son to drink. In Christ’s submission lies the model for every believer who must choose obedience when the cost is high.

Learn from your Savior’s example. Embrace the path of obedience—even when it hurts—and find the strength that comes from trusting God.
