The Average Pursuit

Stop Trying to Win Temptation Without the Word


Listen Later

This week on The Average Pursuit, Jonathan takes listeners deeper into Sunday’s sermon on Jesus in the Wilderness (Matthew 4). Most Christians are losing the battle against temptation — not because they’re weak, but because their souls are starving. In this episode, we explore why temptation is a battle of truth vs. lies, why Jesus used Scripture — not willpower — to overcome the enemy, and why you cannot win spiritual warfare without feeding your soul with the Word.


If you’ve been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or spiritually empty, this conversation will give you clarity, direction, and practical tools to strengthen your inner life.
