    Temptation - Fasting - Lent - Temptation - Forgiveness

    Our text today tells us that Jesus was fasting. It should be obvious that I am not an expert on fasting, but I can answer a couple common questions. Should we fast? Jesus never commands us to fast, but he assumes that we will. In Matthew 6:16 he says “When you fast” not “If you fast”. “When you ...read more

    Prepare well to battle Satan by watching how Jesus’ handled temptation, and by trusting Jesus defeated temptation.

Ø We’d study our opponents so thoroughly that we could teach our team their plays. Ø The time spent scouting paid off ...read more

    I remember a time when I was hit hard with criticism. Three times in a row. A letter. A phone call. A conversation. Three punches to the gut. I heard things like: “You’re not honoring God. You’re just trying to entertain people. You’re too tolerant. You don’t give seasoned Christians ...read more
