Raising the Fallen

About this episode

Tony Crescio reflects on the temptations of Adam and Eve in light of Christ's temptation, exploring the restoration of the human-divine relationship.

In this reflection for the 1st Sunday of Lent, Tony Crescio ( @anthonycrescio ) discusses the temptations of Adam and Eve in the Garden in the revelatory light of Christ's temptation in the desert. As Tony explains, by assuming our human nature, Christ takes up the human story in a corrective mode such that through His life, we are drawn back up into the life of God. In this way, the Incarnate Son repairs the human and divine relationship fractured in the Fall.
