How can I overcome temptation?

In this message Pastor John Lindell shares from James 1:13–18 how temptation follows a predictable pattern, why it never comes from God, and how God faithfully provides a way of escape through His truth and His Word. Our prayer is that you would be strengthened to recognize the lies of temptation, stand firm in God’s promises, and walk in freedom and victory through the power of Christ.
