The Temptation

The Temptation in the desert sums up the theme of Lent: forty days of denial to test the resolve of our faith. Lent can be a time of new beginnings; it can also be a time that rudely reminds us of our shortcomings. But, it is a time for possibilities and growth.

apostolic-times.com continues with context for the season's readings. In Romans 5, St Paul addressed the triumph of grace over sin. In Matthew 4, Jesus overcame temptation.
