November 8, 2023

Abuse is rampant in too many families. People thought everything was okay in David’s royal family—but it wasn’t. In this message, Pastor Lutzer describes the characteristics of dysfunction to help us prevent sin patterns and abuse. But Jesus is on a mission to rebuild the soul, even after the devastation of abuse.

But God’s light still shines—and He is calling us to shine His light in our growing darkness. Is God more tolerant than He used to be? Pastor Lutzer shows how God is both a God of wrath as well as grace; that He is both merciful and just, and both a redeemer and a judge.

People often become sexual abusers within dysfunctional families. In King David’s family, “love” was used to cover the violation of Tamar by her half-brother Amnon. In this message from 2 Samual 13, Pastor Lutzer exposes the first of three characteristics of dysfunction in the royal family. Can families today experience healing after all the scars and the scandals?

Victims of sexual abuse live in a mix of shame and regret, and often with a desire for revenge. Since abusers usually will not ask for forgiveness, how can we let go of the bitterness? In this message, Pastor Lutzer invites us to a place where we can trust God in the deepest parts of who we are. We no longer have to be defined by what happened to us.

Those with sexual abuse in their past often live with repressed anger. Some strike out at others, hoping to lessen their pain.

Many of us long for intimacy but are afraid when we get it. This is often one of the indicators of being abused as a child. In this message, Pastor Lutzer identifies reasons why sexual abuse is on the rise in our broken culture. But it’s never too late to rewrite the story of our life through the power of the gospel.

If what Jesus said is true, we need to invest every moment in this life in preparation for the next, when real life begins. And, it is true.

In a vast universe, humanity seems so insignificant. Yet in Christ, we are given a significant inheritance. In this message from Revelation, Pastor Lutzer highlights the responsibilities for those who overcome in this life. To rule with Christ for all of eternity, in whatever capacity we are entrusted, is unimaginable.

When Christians stand before Jesus to receive their reward, their works will be considered. We’ll also receive responsibilities as we rule with Christ forever. In this message from Luke 16, Pastor Lutzer helps us see how eternal rewards are not earned but are based on character. How does God view the broken and the least in the kingdom?
October 26, 2023
Too many Christians stumble before they cross the finish line. If we live for the applause of people, we will not obtain the heavenly reward that lasts. In this message, Pastor Lutzer provides a specific challenge as we keep our eyes on Jesus in the race of life. Whatever it takes to be a good athlete, is what’s necessary to be a winning Christian.
