Have you ever been forced into a wilderness of discomfort? An out-of-your-control season where the comforts of life are beyond reach? And do you ever just want to binge your way through your time in the wilderness, thinking, "Oh? I have to live without that? Well, then. I'll just feast on this."

In this episode we're looking at the astonishing story from Matthew 4:1-11, where Jesus is in the wilderness and without food for forty days, and yet he still has the power to overcome temptation. And at the end of this episode, I'm going to invite you to live like this story is true—both that Jesus had the power to overcome temptation in the wilderness and—through the power of the Holy Spirit, so do you.
