I'm using Niall Cooper's excellent post Power, fame or fortune? What’s your Lenten challenge? in the sermon slot for our Holy Communion services today at St John's Seven Kings.
Cooper suggests that: "For Jesus, the Lenten challenge was also fundamentally to face down the demons of his day: Temptations to worship false idols; to seek power, fame or fortune. Make no mistake: Such demons are just as real and just as calculatedly designed to appeal to our deepest human desires as in Jesus’ day."
