Invest With Your ROI In Mind #2 of 2
Wednesday, November 25, 2009
Some might see putting money in the offering plate a one-way trip to nowhere. "I had ten dollars, now I don't..."

Jesus told a parable exploding this myth once and for all. The bottom line: money given to transform the lives of others bears a thousand-percent return-on-investment. That's because the real bank is in heaven, not downtown. Today: more lessons from Luke 16.

Walk down the aisle, say "I do," cut the cake, toss the bouquet. Marriage: it's the way to happiness...or, is it? There's good evidence in the Bible that marriage is designed more to develop character than to insure a lifetime of bliss. When the rough spots come, and they will, what are couples to take from those experiences? Today: a frank dose of married reality.

Series: Till Death Do Us Part
 
 
Many marriages are on shaky ground. Some see their mates like car models - trade them in when a better one comes along. The underlying issue is covetousness...wanting what you don't have. The Bible has clear directions for making marriages last, and today, we'll see why living a life of love, purity and honor is the only way to insure a long and satisfying marriage.

Series: Till Death Do Us Part
 
 
In the old days, it was said, "his word is as good as his bond." A handshake and a promise was all it took to seal the deal. These days, when a marriage breaks up, we have pre-nuptual agreements to divvy up the loot. Few take seriously the covenant they enter into when they tie the knot and exchange the rings. Today: back to basics, and why marriage, in God's eyes, is a lifetime deal, come what may.

Series: Till Death Do Us Part
 
 
Even among Christians, a marriage today has 50-50 odds of succeeding. Now, it's "split up" when the going gets tough. Wanda and Gustav Lutzer bucked the trend by celebrating 76 years of marriage in Canada. Their fifth child is Dr. Erwin Lutzer, who tells their story again on today's program, listing five principles that kept his parents together through thick and thin.

The Fingerprints of God #2 of 2
10/20/2009 - Tuesday

Series: The Darwin Delusion
 
 
The scientific method involves experimentation and the validation of results. When it comes to creation, this won't work. There's no way to re-enact the moment of creation. Science must give way to faith, and that troubles many. The issue of evolution has carved a great divide between those who believe the Bible and those who scorn it. Today: questions and answers on a theory that really can't hold water.

God's First Couple #2 of 2
10/16/2009 - Friday
Some scientists say poor environment causes most bad behavior. But Eden was like the Ritz-Carleton, so, why the fall? The first people had a perfect place to live and no one to argue with, except each other. Somehow, temptation and sin ended the paradise of Adam and Eve. As the serpent whispered, the grass seemed greener. Today: more on what happened to two people who are the parents of us all.

God's First Couple #1 of 2
10/15/2009 - Thursday
For Darwin's followers, there was no Eden. Primitive man rose up by pure chance from the primieval slime, and, here we are. The Bible gives an account with no chances. God hand-made the first human man and woman, and gave them a place to live with a mandate to serve Him as custodians of the earth. While the world celebrates Darwin's theories, believers know that it was God, not chance, that brought male and female together.

God's Great Universe #2 of 2
10/14/2009 - Wednesday
Evolution's biggest problem? The first millisecond of the Big Bang. How did anything come out of absolutely nothing? For most under evolution's sway, the evidence and facts do not matter. Their objection is more moral than scientific. If there is a God, He's an inconvenient truth, and so, He must go. Today we'll see why He isn't going anywhere, and why His creation is ample evidence of a genius Designer.

God's Great Universe #1 of 2
10/13/2009 - Tuesday
Evolutionists have a tough sell. It's one thing to say life developed by chance. It's another to say how it all started. Untold quadrillions of stars, planets and galaxies all argue that a Designer put them there. Pure chance can't create anything...something had to set it all in motion. Today, a look at the virtual infinity that is the universe we live in...fit to honor the One who made it all.

The Tale of Two Graves #2 of 2
10/12/2009 - Monday
Square pegs don't fit in round holes, and evolution and creation cannot both be true. Some Christians have tried to bridge the gap. Bowing to the influence of Charles Darwin, some argue for theistic evolution and other approaches that allow God to stay in the background as natural selection does its thing. Today: more on the influence of a man whose teachings cannot be reconciled with those of the Bible.

Series: The Darwin Delusion
 
 
Charles Darwin made history with "On the Origin of Species." This book helped launch evolution on its way. The battle lines are drawn. Christians believe in a Creator God. Evolutionists believe in random chance. The bottom line: if there's no God, there's no one to judge our behavior. And a lot of people would like that just fine. Today: we begin a series on "The Darwin Delusion."

Series: The Darwin Delusion
 
 
When you try to swat a bee, be sure he'll try to sting you. And when you hurt other people, they may just try to hurt you back. One thing kids learn real quick is how to get even. Taking revenge is a natural reaction when we're offended. But the Bible commands us to not seek revenge. Today: rising above our instincts and allowing God to be the one who makes things right.

Series: After You've Blown It
 
 
It seems that conflict is inevitable. Even if we do no wrong, someone out there is all set to do some wrong to us. Resolving the resulting conflicts can be as painful as it is necessary. We must extend forgiveness even when every emotion in us tells us to "get even" instead. Today: more practical counsel on reconciliation: making things right with God and man.

Series: After You've Blown It
 
 
Americans look forward to holiday times...times to gather with friends and relatives, times of shared happiness. But many among us dread times like these because it means facing people who've hurt us, or worse, people we've hurt. Unresolved conflicts are the collateral damage of sin, even forgiven sin. Today: putting damaged relationships back on track.

Series: After You've Blown It
 
 
We can do a lot of damage when we sin. Even though forgiven, sin can leave some serious consequences in its wake. Handling the ongoing pain we've caused is a daunting, but necessary task. Today: we'll begin learning how to seek forgiveness from those we've hurt, and then watch as God graciously brings new life and new hope out of our bad situations.

Series: After You've Blown It
 
 
Certain laws are built into the fabric of the universe...gravity...the speed of light...and the principles of sowing and reaping. You can't avoid gravity, and you can't change the speed of light. Neither can you buck the system that says "what you reap, you sow." God uses this principle to teach His children to not sin...sometimes the lessons are hard. If you find it tough to stop sinning, stay with us.

So You've Done It Again #1 of 2
10/1/2009 - Thursday
Most of us are creatures of habit. It's easy to fall back into old patterns of sin, even after we've sought God's forgiveness. Often we get tripped up in the race of life by returning to the detours of past behavior. Some of us are quite sure there's no way to break out of the cycle of sin, forgiveness, restoration, and back to sin. Today: we begin to find that way out.

Series: After You've Blown It
 
 
The Bible says that when God forgives our sins, He "remembers them no more." How can this be, since God knows everything? After great spiritual failures we say with King David, "My sin is ever before me." So how can it not be before God? The answer lies in the concept of "covering." Today: hope for all who fear their sins on earth will never be forgotten in heaven.
