Part 2: Hungry Like the Wolf

Aug 9, 2026    Rev. Brian Litch

We continue our series The Devil's Playbook this week with a look at gluttony — Genesis 25:29-34. Esau traded his birthright for a bowl of stew, and the story still hits close to home: how fast a craving can dress itself up as an emergency, and how easily we trade something lasting for something immediate. We'll dig into an ancient monk's diagnosis of this exact pattern, watch how Jesus faced the same temptation and didn't take the deal, and walk away with a real way to train our minds before the next "bowl" gets handed to us.
