In this deeply human and spiritually rich episode of Creation's Paths, Charlie and Brian guide us through the Garden of Gethsemane—not only as a moment in Christ’s story, but as a mirror to our own long nights of grief, fear, and resolve. They explore the four paths of Creation Spirituality in this pivotal scene, reflect on folk beliefs of the Messiah, and even touch on the Gospel of Judas and early Christian heresies. In this dark night of the cosmos, we find Jesus wrestling with fate, fear, and hope, echoing the spiritual battles we all endure.
