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.

In a parable, Jesus told of a man who had too much stuff and needed bigger barns to hold it all. The man’s error: assuming his stuff was all he needed. The man didn’t realize that he really needed something his barns could never hold.

Jesus told a story about a man who had a lot, but wanted a lot more. It was this man who said, “Eat, drink and be merry.” This parable of Jesus is chilling: that night the man’s his life was demanded of him. If there’s one thing you want to get right, it’s where you will spend eternity.

Jesus taught a lesson on ultimate investments in a parable recorded in Luke’s gospel. He counsels believers to invest in God’s kingdom, because only in the life to come will the true interest rate be on display.

In good times, stocks and bonds run hot. In shaky times, silver and gold look safer. In one of His parables, Jesus taught that the best possible return can only be had by investing our money for eternal dividends. In this, it’s true that “you can take it with you.”

Jesus told about a wealthy man who decided to fire a manager. Before he left, the manager cut some deals with his master’s creditors… deals meant to curry favor, giving the manager options once his job ended. Today, we decipher why Christ commended a man who acted improperly.

Jesus told of a great banquet. The invited guests all had excuses, so the banquet host invited the poor, the crippled, those who would never expect such a treat and who could never repay him. This parable shows us how we should tell people about the gospel.
