How Could Jesus Be Tempted?
About this episode
Dr. Sri explores the mystery of Christ’s temptation in the desert and its implications for humility and spiritual maturity.
As Lent begins, the Church invites us into the mystery of Christ’s temptation in the desert. Drawing from the wisdom of Thomas Aquinas, Dr. Sri explores why Jesus allowed Himself to be tempted—and what His victory reveals about humility, spiritual maturity, and confidence in the Father’s mercy.
