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.

Believers bear fruit in life’s race by abiding in Jesus, the Vine. The resulting fruit is sweet to the Father, who tends His garden carefully to maximize the harvest. So, how much fruit are we bearing? How are we running our race?

As we run the race of life, Jesus wants us to know where enduring power comes from. His disciples were common people of the land, and they understood a word picture about fruit. In this message we learn a lesson on fruitbearing from a vine and its branches.

When life’s race gets tough, inner peace is what you need. Whether you have health issues, broken relationships, or face an uncertain financial future, the peace Jesus offers is promised to all who believe in Him.

Running the hectic race of life is a lot easier when we have peace within our souls. Peace is elusive in a world ever more hostile to Christ. But Jesus gives His peace to those who believe in Him.

We need help to run the race of life and carry out the ministry God has for us. Our task requires spiritual power, and that power comes from the Holy Spirit who was promised to all who believe in Jesus. As a Christian, you need never feel alone.
August 13, 2019
Running the race of life takes strength. And the strength we need is more than natural energy. Jesus knew we would need supernatural strength, and He promised to send the person of the Holy Spirit to provide spiritual energy for every child of God, even today.
