What if the greatest battle you're fighting isn't physical—but spiritual?

In this episode of Living Radiance, on 12/30/2025, LaCole explores how Satan tempted Jesus using Scripture itself and what that teaches us about the importance of knowing God's Word for ourselves. Through passages from Luke 4, John 14, 1 Peter 5, and Ephesians 4, this conversation unpacks how fear, pride, anxiety, and distraction can quietly pull us away from God's purpose.

The central message is about resisting temptation, recognizing spiritual attacks, humbling yourself before God, overcoming fear and anxiety through Scripture, and cultivating daily spiritual habits that lead to lasting peace.

You'll discover:

• Why the enemy often twists Scripture to create confusion
• How to recognize spiritual attacks in everyday life
• The difference between God's peace and the world's temporary comforts
• Why humility is the foundation for growth, healthy relationships, and answered prayers
• Practical ways to strengthen your spiritual health and your relationships through daily habits, prayer, and Bible study
• How fear, pride, and anxiety keep us from experiencing the life God intends
• Being better partners which leads to better parenting
• Valuing the roles parents have on the development of their children
• Book: “The DNA of Relationships” by Dr. Gary Smalley
• If you’re not good at taking care of yourself then you’re not doing the best you can for your own health nor your best for others

If you've been feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or spiritually drained, this episode is a reminder that God has already equipped you with the armor you need. True peace isn't found in the world's distractions—it's found in walking daily with Christ.

• Luke 4:1–12
