Day 208. How can the Church help you to resist temptation? (2025)

Today is day 208 and we are on the section The Sixth Petition: "And lead us not into temptation".

208. How can the Church help you to resist temptation?

In the fellowship of Christ’s Body, I can find companionship when I am lonely or vulnerable, support to resist ungodly influence, wisdom to guard me from folly, exhortation to grow in holiness, and discipline to correct me when I fall into error. (Matthew 18:15–20; Galatians 6:1–5; 1 Thessalonians 5:11, 14–16; James 5:16)

We will conclude today with Proper 15 found on page 619 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
