Continuing this short series on Christ and the temptations in the wilderness the text remains Luke 4:1-15 with a particular focus on verses 5 to 7 in Jesus facing the temptation of what sort of Messiah Christ was to be. Jane make the point we live in a world obsessed by having power and glory and looking at the related issue of idolatry. After a brief discussion and feedback within the congregation as to what people idolise today Jane suggested that greed is the root to much of what the bible regards as idolatry and then looked at the responses of Jesus to help us to recognise and combat this.
