THERE IS PREPARATION AND THEN THERE IS PREPARATION

LUKE 22:1-30

 

Pastor Rick Jackson

 

Ever study the wrong information for a test? Prepare for the wrong class? Brought the wrong tools for the job at hand? I mean, you’re prepared- you are just not properly prepared. There is preparation and then there is preparation. Here we find the twelve making preparations and yet they don’t seem to be fully prepared. Just like us…
