Why did God make two genders rather than, say, seven? Pastor Todd Wilson, author of "Mere Sexuality," points listeners back to Jesus to talk about sexuality. Wilson reminds us that Jesus came to earth as a male and will continue for all eternity as a male.

Pastor Ronnie Floyd, author of "Living Fit," shares five gauges in a person's life that are indicators he or she is living to their fullest. The first gauge is foundational to a person's spiritual life.
