Week 2

This Week’s Bible Story

Jesus Tempted in the Desert (Luke 4:1-13) Jesus went into the wilderness where he fasted for 40 days. The devil knew that Jesus was very hungry, so he tried to tempt him through a series of tests. Each time, Jesus resisted and reminded the devil of what God told us in the Bible. Because everything God says is good and true!
