Letting Go of Easy Answers
When Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness, he was tempted by the devil to take the easy way out. This came after a 40 day fast when he was at his weakest point. This week marks the first Sunday of Lent, a season of fasting and penitence for Christians all of the world. Fr. Ben Williams offers some guidance in the practice of fasting as well as challenges us to identify the easy answers that keep us from following Jesus in our own lives.
