What do you do when temptation shows up in your life?
In this episode of Between Sermons, Pastor Brent McQuay, Ti’heasha Beasley, and Marcus Ivy unpack Luke 4:1–15, where Jesus is led into the wilderness and tempted by the enemy. Before Jesus begins His public ministry, He faces three powerful temptations — the same ones many of us still struggle with today.
Together, we explore the three “doors” of temptation: appetite, attraction, and ambition, and how these same patterns show up throughout Scripture and in our everyday lives. More importantly, we talk about how Jesus resisted temptation — not just as God, but as a man filled with the Spirit and grounded in the Word.
In this conversation we discuss:
• Why temptation often comes right after spiritual highs
• The three doors Satan uses to tempt us
• How Jesus used Scripture to resist the enemy
• Why knowing your identity in Christ changes everything
• Practical ways to close the doors that lead to sin
If you’ve ever felt stuck in cycles of temptation, this conversation will encourage you that victory is possible through the same power Jesus walked in.
Scripture: Luke 4:1–15
