This document summarizes lessons learned from three biblical gardens - Eden, Gethsemane, and the garden tomb. In Eden, we learn that there is a creator, purpose, companionship, and morality. In Gethsemane, Jesus shows willingness for sacrifice and betrayal. At the garden tomb, Jesus' resurrection proves he keeps his word, death is not the end, and he calls us to spread the message. The document explores the beauty and redemptive lessons of each garden through scripture passages.
