Listen "Why Am I Tempted?"
Episode Synopsis
What if you could understand the reason behind your temptations and how to combat them? In Pastor Mike's powerful sermon, he explores the universal struggle of temptation, anchored in the biblical teaching from James chapter one. He unveils that temptation often arises during trials, when our spirits are weary and we seek comfort outside of God’s design. Pastor Mike emphasizes that while many are quick to blame God or external circumstances for their struggles, the true source lies within our distorted desires. He challenges the listener to recognize how these desires can lead us astray if left unchecked, ultimately culminating in sin and death. But there is hope! Pastor Mike passionately encourages everyone to lean towards Jesus, the one who understands sin's ultimate consequences, having faced them during His crucifixion. He invites each of us to bring our burdens and failures to Jesus, reminding us that through faith, we can find not only forgiveness but also the power to overcome. churchatbergen.org
