Lent | Temptation
Shared on: Mar 17, 2025
The formative account for Lent comes as Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness for 40 days to be tempted by Satan. This week, we memorialize that struggle, leading up to Christ's passion, by studying temptation. What does it mean for us as Christians to face temptation? The fact that Jesus has faced temptations like us and overcome changes the way we act. With this bundle, get the resources you need to encourage and admonish your church to say "No" to sin.
