Running To Win

Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer

Christ, the Lord of Our Finances, Part 2 of 2 (Crowning Christ Lord)

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

Bad decisions bring with them bad consequences, often in the lives of those close to us. How do we unravel the messes we make, even messes we made before coming to Christ?

Anyone can see the results of a choice after it’s made. But what do you do when you’ve made a bad call and have to live with it? Today we begin a series of discussions on Making the Best of a Bad Decision.
