Twenty T's



“Ultimately, the fullness of the story of Christmas culminates with the last three days of the Savior’s life. In that pivotal period, the Savior passed from the Garden of Gethsemane to the cross of Calvary to the Garden Tomb. As Elder Jeffrey R. Holland taught, the impact and efficacy of that moment would reach back to the beginning of time, and forward throughout all eternity. With the fate of every human soul hanging in the balance, Jesus entered the Garden of Gethsemane virtually alone. There followed interrogation, scourging, and finally an excruciating death on the cross. With the same humility and submissiveness in which He declared from the beginning, ‘Here am I, send me,’ he now said, ‘Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit.’” - Elder Craig C. Christensen
