Bad Deal

Some of our strongest temptations involve our cravings - food, sex, attention, connection. Why is desire so powerful? And how do we live with our desires so they connect us to God rather than poison our lives, relationships and faith?

From Series: "Bad Deal"

Why are temptations so... well, tempting? Why are we so attracted to things that are bad for us? And how can we resist them? In this Lent series, we explore the nature of temptation and turn to Jesus' example to heal us. Plus, some help from Dostoyevsky's Grand Inquisitor, because what would Lent be without some 19th century Russian literature?

As king of Israel, Herod should’ve been first in line to the manger. But instead of focusing on representing God, Herod only sought to maintain his own throne. How can his (bad) example teach us how to find the road to God?
