Ep 71 | Jesus in Agony: Prayer, Temptation, and the Garden

In this episode of Closer Look from Valley Center Community Church, Pastors Jason Smith and David Wojnicki discuss Luke 22, focusing on Jesus praying in the garden, prayer as a weapon against temptation, and how to cultivate a disciplined prayer life. They also explore Jesus' emotional anguish, the tension of his dual nature, and how obedience to the Father overcomes feeling-driven actions.

The conversation closes with a reminder that remembering our brokenness makes worship sweeter and points us toward the cross Christ willingly bore for our sin.
