A lot of times when we think about Jesus being tempted we think about his time fasting in the desert. But if we pay attention we can see temptation continue on throughout his ministry. We even see Satan’s temptations come at Jesus in his final moments as he hangs upon a cross.

Synopsis
Angels and demons. Zombies and ghosts. Water serpents and cyborg dragons. Heaven and Hell. Politics and religion. Brennan and Kahli experience it all when their lives are flipped upside down by a miracle man named, Sarx, who is on a mission to install a kingdom on the earth that will overthrow the great dragon and end the corruption that plagues it. As this allegorical fantasy unfolds, you just might find yourself seeing the gospel story in a whole new light.

The Pharisees are not remembered for good things and Matthew 23 reserves some of Jesus' harshest words for them. But even here there are a couple of good qualities Jesus draws attention to, and the rest of the New Testament paints a bigger picture for them as well. Yes, they miss the point time and time again, but perhaps they will eventually see this and repent. And perhaps, we today will see the same problems in our lives as Christians and repent as well.

The Son in the Vineyard
Jamin preaches an—admittedly scatterbrained—message on how the cross was an attempt to shut Jesus’ prophetic words up and how we can do the same if we’re not careful.
