Reading by Pastor John Dunn --- Matthew 4; Luke 4-5 https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%204%3B%20Luke%204-5&version=ESV&interface=print
Because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.Temptation isn't a religious thing; it's a human thing. Every human being recognizes that there are things they are tempted by. But what's the solution? In Matthew 4:1-11, Jesus himself is tempted, yet he fully resists. In this sermon, we explore the fact that because Jesus resisted temptation, you can too.Series Description: Jesus is the hero of all of Scripture, the center of the biblical story, and the most important figure in history. The Gospel of Matthew gives us a firsthand look at the life and teachings of Jesus. It stands as a “bridge” between the Old and New Testaments, grounding us in the rich story of Israel while revealing the in-breaking reality of the kingdom of heaven. Through this preaching series, we seek to help people encounter the gospel of the kingdom and embody it as flourishing disciples who live under the gracious rule of God.

After forty days of fasting in the wilderness, Jesus faces three temptations from Satan and responds with Scripture alone. Following John's arrest, Jesus moves to Capernaum in Galilee to begin His public ministry, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy about light dawning in darkness. He calls four fishermen to follow Him and begins teaching in synagogues, preaching the kingdom, and healing throughout the region. Matthew 4 shows Christ succeeding where Israel failed and launching the mission that would transform the world. The Rev. Roger Mullet, pastor of Prince of Peace Lutheran Church in Buffalo, WY, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Matthew 4. To learn more about Prince of Peace, visit princeofpeacebuffalo.org. The Gospel of Matthew bridges Old and New Testaments, presenting Jesus as the promised Messiah who fulfills the Law we could never keep and establishes His kingdom of grace for all nations. Written by a tax collector transformed by pure grace, Matthew reveals Christ as the true Son of David and Emmanuel (God with us) who challenges us with the crushing demands of the Law in His Sermon on the Mount to the sweet comfort of the Gospel in His death and resurrection. From royal genealogy to glorious resurrection, this verse-by-verse study proclaims the One who conquered sin, death, and the devil for us, now delivering forgiveness, life, and salvation through Word and Sacrament as He remains with His church always, even to the end of the age. Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Weekly sermon from Trinity Church Denver
In this episode of the Sermon Notes podcast, Jay Strother and Brian Ball dive deep into the biblical call to discipleship, continuing their journey through the Gospel of Matthew. As they unpack the stories of Jesus calling His first disciples—including fishermen, tax collectors, and skeptics—they explore what it means to follow Jesus with immediate obedience, childlike faith, and a willingness to count the cost. Jay and Brian reflect on how discipleship in the first century required not just belief, but a total reordering of life—leaving behind jobs, family expectations, and comfort to walk with Jesus. They contrast this radical call with today's culture of shallow relationships and delayed commitment, offering a powerful reminder that Jesus still calls, and we are still invited to obey. If you're wrestling with what it looks like to truly follow Christ, this conversation is packed with biblical wisdom, pastoral insight, and heartfelt encouragement.

In this episode of the Sermon Notes podcast, host Jay Strother and guest Brian Ball dive deep into Matthew 4, unpacking the powerful story of Jesus' temptation in the wilderness. Building on insights from previous weeks, they explore the connections between Jesus' experience and the broader storyline of scripture, especially how the Gospel of Matthew highlights the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies. The conversation tackles what it means to follow Jesus through times of testing, the reality of spiritual warfare, and how God's Word equips believers to stand firm against temptation. Jay and Brian offer thoughtful reflections on the nature of true identity, the danger of shortcuts, and the importance of grounding oneself in scripture rather than cultural narratives or emotions. With practical applications and rich biblical context, this episode invites listeners to find hope and resilience in Christ's example and victory.

Message by: Scott Treadway In the second temptation of Jesus in the wilderness, He is offered the kind of glory and power often associated with the promise of a savior, but He refuses. Instead, Jesus chooses the call of God to save the world through humble service from the heart of love. God continues to save the world through our humble service led by the Spirit of Christ in us.
