In this episode, Ben explores Luke 3:21–22 and Luke 4:1–14, looking at Jesus’ baptism, time of fasting, and temptation in the wilderness. He focuses on identity, showing how Jesus resists the lies that our worth comes from what we do, what we have, or what others think of us, and instead lives from the secure knowledge that he is God’s beloved Son. Ben explains why prayer and fasting are not about earning God’s approval or power, but about making space to listen to God and root our lives in his truth. The episode ends with practical encouragement to step out in boldness, pray intentionally, and join in God’s work of drawing people to faith.
