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.

There's one person who's the key to how you relate to life and to life's stressful situations. That person is your dad. We who run the race of life may not even realize the deep impact left by our fathers. Much of our inner pain can be traced to how we relate to our dads. Today: a revealing look at why your father is so important in your life. Please listen with us.

Uncontrollable anger is not just excess hormones. It's a problem of the spirit, only solvable in the spiritual realm. Running life's race is hard enough without being sidelined by fits of rage. The way out begins with admitting our problem, rejoicing in God's acceptance, and then forgiving others. Today: final lessons on handling rage the right way. Please listen with us.

Some people think you can get rid of anger by hitting something inanimate, and "letting off some steam." Trouble is: this doesn't work. Modern pop psychology is no match for the Bible in pinpointing the source of rage, or how to control the inappropriate anger all of us experience from time to time. Today: we learn more about anger and how to handle it. Now listen with us.

It's like an iceberg. Hidden below many a person's calm surface is a huge mass of rage which can burst forth at any time. No one can win in the race of life when he or she is tripped up by fits of inappropriate anger. Today: we uncover the unpleasant truth that the roots of rage lie within each of our hearts. What to do about it? To find out, listen with us.

We've all seen it: people out of control with anger. They drive dangerously. They start fights. But where does this rage come from? Winning in life's race means getting rage under control. Today: we probe the source of a destructive emotion, and point the way out of living with habitual anger. If you're driving, watch out for the other guy's "road rage," and for now, please listen with us.

We all know about the curse of shame: the guilt, the heavy emotional load. But what about the cure? Is there one? Yes, you can win in the race of life. You can win over shame. Today: you're about to hear a powerful teaching on how to get rid of shame for good, and live in the freedom of having a clear conscience. Please listen with us.

We've all experienced the painful emotion of shame: either because we've done wrong, or, because wrongs have been done to us. And sadly, some homes are based on shame. Today, we'll learn about shame's consequences, and then look to the Bible to find God's cure for shame. Do you know anyone cursed by shame? If so, please listen with us.

One emotion entered the human race early. After eating the forbidden fruit, Adam and Eve felt powerful waves of shame. And when we sin, we too look for some way to cover ourselves...some way to alleviate the guilt that can wash over us. Today, a biblical study of shame: its source and its solution. Please listen with us.

It's a powerful and painful emotion. We've all felt it, but some have felt it so deeply that it threatens to destroy them. Shame: this emotion can be a curse. Today, we're going to explore its origins, and then turn to the Bible to discover God's answer to the curse of shame. If shame has ever paralyzed you or someone you know, please listen with us.

Sad, but true: in our enlightened culture, we no longer repent of our sins. Instead, we've learned to manage them. We're so deceived; we think we're OK as long as we keep our sins in balance, like a circus juggler. We do this, knowing full well that God is not fooled. Yet, we do it anyway. Today: the bitter fruits of self-deception.
