This week's message explores the concept of temptation through the prayer of Jabez and teachings in James, emphasizing that while temptation is universal, we can overcome it by focusing on God's goodness. Pastor Chris outlines the four-step path of temptation (desire, deception, disobedience, death) and he speaks to practical strategies for overcoming temptation through spiritual vigilance and surrendering control to God. We are reminded that being tempted isn't sinful—it's human—but we need God's strength to resist and overcome.
