The testing of God's Son: Luke's Gospel has already announced that Jesus is the Son of God - three times. Immediately after providing Jesus' genealogy, showing that Jesus is the Son of God, Satan enters the story - to test whether that is true. Three times he asks Jesus to prove that he is the Son of God. Relying on the Word of God (from the Book of Deuteronomy) Jesus defeats Satan, and he departs. But he will return.

Presented by world-renowned biblical scholar Rev. Professor Francis J. Moloney SDB AM, Audio Divina, is a Lectio-Divina styled reflection on the gospel for the First Sunday of Lent, Year C.
