This weekend, I am launching a new series on the Old Testament at Riv and we’ll be specifically looking for Jesus in those pages.

That’s why this video (via ysmarko) struck me. It’s about Jesus’ 40 days in the desert and his temptation by Satan before he launched into his ministry. Even though the video doesn’t specifically show how Jesus fought these temptations, I was reminded that he did so by quoting the Old Testament. It was, after all, the Bible he had.

Enjoy the video and we’ll see you this weekend.

Growing up in the Lansing area, I wanted nothing more than to get out. My exit strategy included a complex mixture of schemes for an urban church plant, iProducts, and an elaborate Bollywood car chase scene with zombies and catchy techno music.

As a 40 year old man, I find myself entrenched in the Lansing area at a church I love (Riverview), with 4 kids I love more (a high schooler, a junior higher, a middle schooler, and an elementary schooler), and a wife I love the most (Grace).

Instead of planting one church, I dream of helping hundreds get started without ever leaving my home base. I still love my iProducts and use them as tools to help lead and teach the thousands who attend Riverview. And when no one is looking, I blare the techno music and send my unimpressive resume to casting agents for Bollywood zombie films.
