Lent 2025 - Week 3 "Tempted in the Wild"

Join us for a deep dive into the third week of Lent as we unpack the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness—a raw, defining moment that echoes all the way back to the Garden of Eden. In this episode, we explore the striking parallels to Adam and Eve’s encounter with the serpent. What do these two wildernesses—one lush with promise, the other stark with trial—reveal about human nature, sin, and redemption?

We’ll break down the first of three temptations Jesus faced—turning stones into bread—and how they mirror the lure of the forbidden fruit. Where Adam and Eve stumbled, Jesus stands firm, rewriting the story of humanity’s fall with a victory of obedience and trust. The rich and ancient narratives speak to our own Lenten journey: the deserts we face, the choices we wrestle with, and the hope of a Savior who’s been there before us.
