We enter into the season of Lent -- a time of preparation for the celebration of Easter -- with a reflection on Jesus' preparation in the wilderness, as he overcame the three temptations of the devil. Sandy and Jin talk about how this informs our understanding of our desires, provides a better theology of evil, the certainty/uncertainty of faith, AND the great temptation that we in the church have all too often fallen for. This is our longest episode, but wow, the time flew by!
The lectionary readings that are assigned for this week were Matthew 4:1-11; Genesis 2:15-17, 3:1-7; Psalm 32; and Romans 5:12-19.
