Description

This lecture explores the roots of American Blues music. The Blues tell us about the hardships of this path we call life but they also ask questions, the same questions we ask our Father. Why does God allow suffering? Can this pass? In the Garden of Gethsemane Jesus shows us His true humanity. He shows us what struggle looks and feels like. Jesus gives us a great gift of knowing that through our struggles we can also experience the journey from anguish to joy.
