Jesus answered, 'It is written'

a sermon on Luke 4:1-13

preached at Prince of Peace Mennonite Church in Anchorage, Alaska

17 March 2013

The Israelites knew hunger and hardship in the desert, but God gave them bread and water from a stone. Jesus also experienced hunger during his 40 days in the wilderness. He looked to the word of God to satisfy his hunger and to resist temptation. Where do we look when temptation strikes?
