“Beautiful and Terrible” By The Rev. Dr. Louisa W. Umphres - 1st Sunday in Lent

Scriptures: Luke 4:1-13Description: It’s the first Sunday of Lent, a season where we don’t have to pretend life is easy or that everything has a solution. Life is beautiful and terrible, often at the same time. Jesus knew that better than anyone. He chose the harder path, rejecting easy versions of power and rule. No story makes that more clear-cut than the story of Jesus in the wilderness, where he rejects each of the devil’s temptations… #Lent #TheHardestPart #Wilderness Bio: The Rev. Dr. Louisa W.
