Temptation is something we all deal with. What makes it so difficult? What can we do to avoid giving in to it? How can God help us? In this episode, I offer some answers to these critical questions.

Jesus' challenge to do "whatever it takes" to avoid giving in to temptation can be found in Matthew 5:29-30.

God's promise to get us out of any temptation we face can be found in I Corinthians 10:13.

The apostle Paul’s encouragement to us to fill our minds with good things can be found in Philippians 4:8.

Paul’s experience with his "thorn in the flesh" is discussed in II Corinthians chapter 12:7-10.

God's invitation for us to come to him boldly is recorded Hebrews 4:15-16.
