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.

As radical Islam partners with the radical left in America, the net effect is the ultimate destruction of all we hold dear. These are perilous times, and we must be determined to not be silenced. Will we compromise or confront this problem?

Incalculable damage is being done to the next generation as our kids are sexualized at ever younger ages. Hitler said, "he who owns the children owns the future." Today's culture knows this. That's why they create sexual confusion, control local education, and compel allegiance to the transgender, gay, and socialist agendas.

Going against the grain always costs you. The tide of propaganda infecting our media is not unlike that used by Adolph Hitler in Nazi Germany. As society continues to dish out hostility towards Christianity, we must stand firm in our voice of truth.

The American ideal of free speech is in tatters. Now, it's only free if you agree with the mainstream media. Freedom is in mortal danger even when we worship, as police knock on church doors like they did in Nazi Germany.

Diversity sounds so good, until you're on the wrong side of what society says is diverse. These days, diversity is used to divide and destroy. Our culture is collapsing into a tyranny by those whose feelings are hurt, and we must respond with boldness and grace. Christianity cannot be silenced any longer.

The culture is too far gone to reclaim, and even the church is buying into a decaying culture. But we can still reclaim the church by turning to God in repentance and faith. We can either respond courageously to our culture’s assault on Christianity or we can fall complicit to its moral decay.

Ultimately, the key to a clear conscience is to walk in the light and stay out of the darkness. When we stick to that plan, we’ll have the joy of unbroken fellowship with God. In this message we learn how to avoid the traps of sin that seek to ensnare us.
March 23, 2021
To maintain a clear conscience, we need to be vigilant, lest any works of darkness find their way into our lives. That’s what Paul told the Ephesian believers, as he counseled them to “walk as children of light.”
March 22, 2021
The Bible gives believers a big-picture view of God’s will for us to be holy, but it also gives specifics on how we should act toward each other. Paul has such a list in Ephesians chapter 5. How do you measure up?
March 19, 2021
Maintaining a clear conscience is not what the devil has in mind for the children of God. He tells lies to enslave us once more under the bondage of a defiled conscience. But we have the tools to resist those lies and to walk in victory.
