Summary
On the First Sunday of Lent, Fr Sam reframes Lent not as a season of gloom, but as a path to deeper joy. Reflecting on the wilderness temptations of Christ, he explores how Jesus reversed the pattern of Eden, resisting the temptations of appetite, power, and control where humanity had failed.
Lent, then, becomes a season of abundance. Through fasting, prayer, and generosity, we are not punishing ourselves but retraining our hearts, turning away from self-reliance and back toward the loving relationship with God for which we were created. True joy, the sermon reminds us, is not fleeting happiness but flourishing in communion with the Trinity, made possible through Christ’s victory in the wilderness.
