Choose This Day 1: Shepherd MV

Sermons @ Shepherd

In this week's sermon from Shepherd of the Hills, we explore the significance of Lent, a time for reflection and growth for Christians leading up to Easter. The theme for this year's Lenten journey is "Choose This Day," focusing on making important choices. The sermon delves into the story of Jesus being tempted in the wilderness, exploring the idea of temptation and how it affects everyone. The speaker warns about the temptation of power, which is a problem in both the secular and religious world, often leading people to cause harm. In the final section, the speaker emphasizes the importance of service over power and discusses the third temptation of Jesus, which was the temptation of worldly power. He emphasizes the importance of knowing the Scriptures to help resist temptation by choosing God instead. Tune in to gain insights into the nature of temptation, the power it presents, and how you too can overcome temptation by choosing God, and choosing this day!
