What if the events of Holy Week took place in front of today’s cameras and microphones? Imagine a recording of the throngs cheering Christ’s Jerusalem entrance. Or a reporter embedded in the mob outside Pilate’s Hall. That’s the premise of Moody Radio’s production, A Stirring in Jerusalem.

 

Secrets from the Garden

For many Christians, Gethsemane is a brief rest stop on the way to the main story — the cross. But there are critical questions that demand explanation.

Long before the cross, prophecy had promised a messiah. Now, in the wilderness, John the Baptist heralds his coming—and Jesus of Nazareth begins his ministry. From temptation in the desert to the miracle at Cana, the Son of God steps into His calling, revealing a kingdom unlike any the world expected.

But His compassion ignites conflict among the mighty and sows doubt even among His followers. This is the rise of a Messiah defined not by strength—but by sacrifice.
