A death-row inmate faces a grim prospect. Sometimes, a state's governor will commute his sentence, and even set him free if new evidence is discovered. In a moment, the inmate's outlook leaps from despair to joy. We all deserve a spiritual death-row sentence. Were it not for the work of Jesus, none of us would escape getting what we've earned through our sins. Today, we'll discover that God has bestowed yet another gift on those who trust Christ. Please stay with us.

How would you react if a lawyer called, saying you'd just inherited a million dollars from a distant relative? No doubt with disbelief at first. Later, reality would sink in when the check was handed to you. Well, if you're a believer, you have a check waiting for you at the bank of heaven. And its for far more than a mere million. For the details, please stay with us.

As a believer matures in the faith, he or she comes to realize that salvation is not so much a result of our seeking God as it is the result of God choosing us first. We'll learn that, if God had not done this, none of us would ever have chosen Him. Please stay with us.

Only a Christian can be certain that all of life is heading toward a future glory. That's why a believer can know that all things, even the bad things, work together for good for those who love God. For a challenging message on a famous Bible verse, please stay with us.

It's tough to be optimistic when slogging through life's tough times. Some people try to grin and bear it; others crack under the pressure. But the Christian can have a perspective that makes enduring our troubles possible: a perspective of a future glory that makes our present suffering infinitesimal in comparison.

How would you feel if you got a letter saying that an unknown benefactor had died, leaving you ten million dollars? You were an heir to a fortune, and did not know it. Well, that's exactly what you are as a child of God. In the book of Romans, we read: "The Spirit bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God, and if children, then heirs...joint heirs with Christ."

When the economy is tanking, we may not find much encouragement in our surroundings. Many of us are fearful for the future. But for the Christian, this is a good reminder that our real security and treasure lies in the world to come. This is the teaching we find in the book of Romans, teaching that can transform our outlook as it changes our lives.

When summer comes, most of us experience hot temperatures, and enjoy cool drinks to allay our thirst. As much as we need water for our bodies, we need God for our souls. Israel's King David went through some desperate times in his life, times during which all that could sustain him was an equally desperate need for God.

It's tough walking on a trampoline. With no secure footing, you do your best just to stay upright. The same is true in life. Without a sure foundation, the ups and downs we face can toss us to and fro like leaves in the wind. What we need is some solid ground to walk on, and today we'll find it. Stay with us.

If the Lord brought a revival of repentance to a city, most of God's people would rejoice. But not Jonah. He felt double-crossed...God withheld the judgment Jonah had prophesied against Ninevah. Today: God teaches a lesson to a man who still rebelled even after surviving a fish's belly.

Some believers will only obey God after He teaches them a lesson the hard way. Jonah finally went to Ninevah, a little the worse for wear after three days inside a fish. Even then, the prophet of God was not happy that wicked Ninevites might repent. Today: part three in the saga of an unwilling servant of God.

Philip Miller is the 17th Senior Pastor of The Moody Church. Philip holds a B.A in Pre-Seminary Bible from Cedarville University (’04) and a Th.M. in Pastoral Leadership and New Testament Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary (’10). His wife, Krista, also holds an Th.M. degree from DTS. They have four children: Claire, Violet, Cora, and Jude.

Philip is a visionary leader with over twelve years of ministry experience, including three at Christ Community Church in the western Chicago suburbs and nearly seven as Senior Pastor at Westwood Baptist in Olympia, WA. He believes people flourish as followers of Jesus when they live deeply in the gospel, experience the healing of true community, and join Jesus on mission in their world. He is committed to cultivating a gospel-centered church that welcomes spiritual explorers, promotes gospel clarity in culturally engaging ways, inspires passionate worship, fosters deep spiritual vitality, empowers people to holistic discipleship, and catalyzes a multiplication movement of gospel renewal both locally and globally.
