The Temptations We Face - James 1:13-18 - Skip Heitzig

Episode 4 from the series Adulting with Skip Heitzig. Watch the complete series:    • James, the Adult in the Room - James 1:1 -...   It’s one thing to be tested on the outside (trials); it’s another thing to be tested on the inside (temptation). God may allow temptations in order to strengthen our faith. But Satan desires to tempt us to weaken our faith. In C. S. Lewis’s classic book The Screwtape Letters, a senior demon wrote to a trainee, saying, “All the habits of the [Christian], both mental and bodily, are still in our favor.” Today, we consider how temptation works and find workable solutions to overcome it. HOW TO KNOW GOD Curious about what it means to know Jesus? Knowing God doesn't mean trying to be a good person or even going to church. It means accepting the free gift of forgiveness and eternal life made possible by Jesus' death and resurrection.
