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.

When you try to swat a bee, be sure he will try to sting you. And when you hurt other people, they may just try to hurt you back. One thing kids learn real quick is how to get even.

Someone has said, "I love the church…it is the people in it I cannot stand." Whenever people interact, people can have conflict.

Today: some practical "how-to" advice.

Today: advice on how to repair a broken relationship so that it stays fixed.

Today: putting damaged relationships back on track.

"All the King's horses and all the King's men couldn't put Humpty together again." There is truth even in fairy tales. Sin's consequences usually involve ruptured relationships.

It has been said that those who ignore the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them. That is also true when it comes to sin. Running the race of life is a lot easier when we avoid the ruts in the road, and the ruts in our lives. Today: some pointed reminders that God wants us as Christians to turn away from the sins that so easily, and frequently, beset us.

There are certain laws built into the fabric of the universe...gravity...the speed of light...and the laws of sowing and reaping. You cannot avoid gravity, and you cannot change the speed of light. Neither can you buck the system that says "what you reap, you sow." God uses this principle to teach His children to not sin, and sometimes the lessons are hard. If you find it tough to stop sinning, stay with us.
