The temptations of the devil are obstacles of Jesus fulfilling his purpose in the way God designed. Jesus faced these temptations many times throughout his ministry. Each time, Jesus accomplished the purpose of God in the way God intended.

| Jan 15, 2012: “An Obedient Father” – Matthew 2 (Darin Kennedy) |
Joseph, Jesus’ earthly father, is the epitome of what a disciple should be. He, as the Magi also do, responds quickly and obediently to the word of God. Many people want discipleship on their own terms, in ways that promote their own safety and prosperity, but we must be completely obedient to God no matter where that obedience takes us.

| Jan 8, 2012: "That Little Word 'With'" --Matthew 1:18-25 (Darin Kennedy) |
The good news of “Immanuel—God with us” amazes, challenges, and empowers us. The way we value ourselves and others, the way we take on the most difficult tasks of discipleship, and the way we carry out our mission are all deeply impacted by God’s presence with us in Jesus.

| Jan 1, 2012: "More of the Same" – Matthew 1:1-17 (Darin Kennedy) |
The genealogy of Jesus may not be the most exciting read, but it effectively introduces us to what blessings come through the ministry of Jesus. We find out that God will continue forgiving the sinful and calling the stranger and keeping his promises like He has always done.
