About this title

Synopsis

What is the meaning within the remarkable scene in Luke 4:1-14 of Jesus being challenged by the devil in the "wild"-the untamed and unruly wilderness? And what are the surprising implications of this event for followers of Jesus today? In Jesus in the Wild, readers will take a forty-day journey into the heart of one of the most unusual, and often most misunderstood, stories in the Gospel accounts. In this encounter, following his baptism in the Jordan and before the inauguration of his ministry, Jesus is alone with the adversary-the one whose works he had come to destroy (1 John 3:8). He faces three tests, or "temptations"-all aimed at unseating him from his identity, his belovedness, and his purpose as the Son of God. Understanding how Jesus faced down the accuser in the wild, readers will be equipped to address every demonic challenge that comes their way in the wild places in their own lives. Jesus in the Wild is a perfect personal study and daily reader for individuals who want to gain a deeper sense of their vocation and calling in Christ, and for groups or congregations wanting a study on this momentous event in Jesus's life.
