It's early in the final week. The props and players for Friday's drama are in position. Five-inch spikes are in the bin. A cross-beam leans against a shed wall. The players are nearing the stage - Pilate, Annas and Caiaphas, Judas, the centurions. Players and props. Only this is no play; it's a divine plan. A plan begun before Adam felt heaven's breath, and now all heaven waits and watches. All eyes are on one figure - the Nazarene. Commonly clad. Uncommonly focused. He's on his final journey.

What does the word “Gethsemane” mean to you? What do you think of when you hear it? For us, it is the starting point for an examination of the last day Jesus spent on Earth. The primary reason for starting this 40-day devotional journey with the Garden of Gethsemane is the dramatic change in tone as the disciples walked with Jesus from the Upper Room to his private place of prayer.
