First Sunday of Lent
 Sermon Series: 40 Days of Growth 
 Sermon: Temptation

Scripture: Luke 4:1-13


Lent begins not in comfort, but in the wilderness. Before Jesus teaches, heals, or calls disciples, he is led into a place of testing. Hungry. Alone. Tempted. In Luke 4:1–13, we see that temptation isn’t just about dramatic choices—it’s about subtle compromises, shortcuts, and the quiet pull to trust ourselves instead of God.


In this Sunday’s sermon, “Temptation,” we begin our new series 40 Days of Growth by exploring what it means to face the wilderness honestly. Jesus shows us that temptation often meets us at our weakest points—when we’re tired, anxious, or wanting quick relief. Yet he also shows us how to stand firm, grounded in God’s Word and God’s promises.


Join us as we begin the Lenten journey together, learning how even seasons of testing can become seasons of growth.
