About this episode

Pastor Will discusses the temptations Jesus faced in the wilderness and the significance of confronting our distractions during Lent.

Jesus spent forty days in the wilderness — no distractions, nowhere to hide. Lent invites us to do the same. This week, Pastor Will walks through Matthew 4:1-11 and the temptations Jesus faced, asking what we might find waiting for us when we finally put down our distractions and go into the wilderness on purpose.
