As the Apostle Paul wrote: “I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge - that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God” (Eph 3:16-19) NIV.


Prayer Gardeners develops and maintains the Gethsemane Prayer Garden in Syracuse, New York along with many volunteers. The garden is located on the campus at Faith Chapel, 4113 W. Seneca Turnpike in the Onondaga Hill area of Syracuse. This one-acre garden, which is open to the public, is a place of peace and quiet, a place of rest and renewal.

Tom Clarke is the owner and director of Prayer Gardeners. Under this hat, he started authoring and publishing Christian books in 2008. Publishing under the name Bible Discernments, writing has become a source of joy for Tom as he moves from full-time employment at a regular job. Currently he has three books that are available:

A Garden of Love A Garden of Love
Soft and delicate flowers, some fragrant and some just lovely, some in profusion and some very dainty, create a fresh sense of Christian love. By interweaving a depiction of flowers and the Scriptures, this book attempts to illustrate how flowers can inspire a Scriptural application of love. Feel God's gentle touch as thirty flowers are colorfully presented from the Gethsemane Prayer Garden.
A Topical Treasury of Proverbs A Topical Treasury of Proverbs
From Anger to Zeal, each verse of the Book of Proverbs is classified into one or more topics. There are one hundred topics in this 336-page book; each verse highlights the word or words that are key for each topic. With this approach, we can easily find all verses about a topic, meditate on them, and let the Lord minister.
Joshua's Spiritual Warfare Joshua's Spiritual Warfare – Understanding the Chiasms of Joshua
The Book of Joshua is analyzed using the chiastic (ky'-as-tic) approach – in doing so, we see the Lord emphasizing passages that would often be overlooked for their full meaning.
