Jesus is the Pattern
Readings for the 1st Sunday of Lent - Deuteronomy 26:4-10; Luke 4:1-13
We hear the same story every 1st Sunday of Lent, with the only difference being whose version it is. The story is the Temptation in the Desert and this year, we get Luke's perspective. And like so many of the Gospel stories, we can read them and think of them merely as stories that happened to Jesus all those years ago, showing us His wisdom, strength and confirming Him as God's Beloved. But we would be selling the Gospel short if that's how we hear it. The stories may be about Jesus, but they are our stories, too. Jesus is the pattern and shows us the way. We walk in His footsteps.
Special thanks, as always, to Shamus, Bridget and Mandy - for without them this podcast wouldn't be a reality, and it wouldn't sound like it does. Mostly, thanks to you - for continuing to listen (especially during this time of not knowing when the podcasts will be dropped into your feeds!) and share them with others. I'm grateful and humbled.
