Über diesen Titel
We’re going through Lent spending time every day, not alone but with Jesus in the desert, not empty but full of his Spirit, not resting but wrestling with the things that get between us and God, not relying on ourselves but trusting in God to win every battle thanks to what Jesus did.
Matthew 4:4
Jesus answered, ‘It is written: “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”’
What is surprising about Jesus' response here?
Is it as defensive as we might be when undermined, questioned, or accused about our identity and integrity?
Is Jesus replying on the enemy's terms, at their choice of battle location, or reframing the battle with a bigger, better way of seeing things?
What does it mean to live on God's word? Is it just about the Bible, or something more - perhaps something we can find explained in the Bible, a foundation of all creation, including us?
What can we find in the Bible to help us reflect on who God says we are? (Join us in exploring, and find a list if you'd like one at severnchurchbristol.org/lent)
We're inviting you to spend a few days reflecting on this before we look at another trial in our next episode.
