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.

Society confuses the natural roles of men and women.  Many people want men to feel that it is wrong to be masculine. The result is that families have either weak husbands or no husbands at all.

Our culture tries to convince women that putting “homemaker” on a resume does not cut it. But no job is as tough as being a mother, especially for a single mom. Today we learn what the church should do to help these women.

There is no better role model for motherhood than Mary, who struggled as a single mom with several children, including her firstborn: Jesus, the Son of God. Her calling as a mom shows us how crucial motherhood is.

Motherhood is never easy. But for one woman, it was almost unbearable. Mary had to watch her firstborn son die on a cross after raising him from infancy. Mary can teach today’s moms what devotion and commitment are all about.

We who run life’s race face an adversary. He is called the prince of darkness, and the devil. But we don’t have to let him block the track. His weapons are lying and deception. What’s our defense? Today, we begin a probing look at Satan, the serpent of paradise.

The enemies of the heterosexual family invariably deny the fundamental differences between the genders. This makes it easier for “Heather” to have “two mommies.” Yet the Bible teaches that kids need both moms and dads.

The foundation of any society is the family, because families produce the next generation. Making marriage work lies at the bedrock, and this requires understanding the roles and responsibilities of husband and wife.

The Psalmist cried out, “If the foundations are destroyed, what can the righteous do?”  (11:3). The family is under attack by the devil and his political cohorts, all determined to destroy marriage, your kids, and the moral values taught in the Scriptures.

Jesus said, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.” Politics won’t change men’s hearts, even for those who pushed through recent court decisions undermining marriage.  Following Jesus by living a Cross-centered life is the key.
