Jeff Dixon unpacks this often-overlooked passage from the Garden of Gethsemane, presenting a thought-provoking theory that connects burial shrouds, Jesus’ powerful “I am,” and a potential hidden miracle. Join us for this Easter Egg Hunt installment that will challenge you to look closer at scripture.
