Episode Synopsis

Hannah zooms in on Jesus's vulnerability and fragility in the garden of Gethsemane - being honest about his fear and resolute in his commitment to honour God's will. She contrasts Jesus attitude with the shortcomings of the disciples - falling asleep when called to pray, fighting when that's not needed and denying Jesus when challenged. Hannah cites modern experiences of hope shared and encourages us to take comfort in the bounceback of the disciples. God accepts us as we are - rest in him and hold on tight(!).
