Just as no two snowflakes are alike, no two people are alike. We are all different, and that diversity adds a richness to life. But it also adds a set of problems. When two people don’t get along, even two Christians, what do you do? Here’s a solution for those difficult people in your life, and mine.

From the outside looking in, the Christian church is hardy unified. There are more variations and denominations emerging every day, leading one to wonder what doctrine is “most correct.” In this message, we will learn how we can discern truth from error, and make wise choices regarding our place of worship.

When Christians stand for truth in a pluralistic culture, conflict is inevitable. Increasingly, that conflict is with our own government. This is the first of four messages on Christians in Conflict, and how we should live in view of those conflicts.

It’s human nature to want to be in control and to manipulate circumstances in our favor. The Old Testament patriarch Jacob was a schemer who sought to gain every advantage he could. It took a dramatic intervention in his life for him to realize that God was in control, and not himself. The lesson he learned is our lesson to learn as well.

The internet brings pornography to anyone who wants it. This inflames desires and leads to sexual addictions–a good reason why the Bible tells us to guard our hearts.

Like everyone else, Christians are drowning in a sea of moral impurity. Peer pressure makes young people text all day long. Social media is replacing face-to-face communication.

While some issues in life may lie in gray areas, others are black and white.

Imagine yourself in a boat that’s safe and dry. Across the pond another boat is leaking and sinking. You may think you’re OK. But in terms of moral temptation, we’re all in the same boat. All of us as humans are prone to moral sins, and the media makes such sinning easy. Let’s explode some myths about who’s vulnerable to the power of the internet.

It’s been said that America will fall, not by the guns of its enemies, but by the moral rot of its citizens. The media is one reason why. The more “online” we become, the more exposed we are to forces determined to addict us to moral perversity. The danger is very real and the evidence is everywhere.
