Episode Details

We walk into Lent with purpose and unpack how Jesus’ temptations reveal our own: hunger for quick fixes, shortcuts to power, and the pull of applause. The desert becomes good news as we practice hidden faithfulness, resist half-truths, and live as beloved sons and daughters.

• choosing intentional fasting to reveal real dependencies
• Scripture as the answer to doubt and desire
• trading shortcuts and control for trust in the Father
• recognizing the devil’s subtle strategies and half-truths
• practicing unseen acts to break vanity and seek God’s gaze
• daily recommitment to put Jesus first over comfort
• reframing temptation as a moment for grace and growth
