Conflict in relationships is inevitable, but healing and reconciliation often is not. Time and again we've tried every option and failed, and all we are left with is a load of guilt and pain. Pastor Erwin Lutzer shows how the blessing the Lord gives to those who suffer unjustly is worth the pain involved. He also illustrates the need to leave our broken relationships in the hands of God and move forward in our lives toward freedom.

Can we sin too much to be forgiven? Many assume God will not forgive sexual sins, so they sin even more, not knowing the mercy of Jesus. In this message from Luke 7, we listen to a real-life story of how Jesus restored someone’s dignity despite a lifetime of sexual sin. Are we determined to meet Jesus at any cost?

Immoral relationships create deep bonds, even between people having “casual” sex. The more bonds we make, the tougher they are to break. In this message, we step into freedom with Christ through cleansing, fleeing, and communicating. There is a way out of the bondage of promiscuity.

Sex is more than a one-night stand. It creates a bond that unites us to another in purpose, desire, and relationship. What effect does a sexual relationship outside of marriage have on us?

“If it feels good, it must be right. After all, I am entitled to my happiness.” With lies like these, we rationalize our disobedience to God’s commands, even about sex.

Driven by our desires, we are experts at self-deception. We will do whatever it takes to satisfy our urges, and then justify it by believing blatant lies.

Our culture is a sea of sensuality. Some have attempted to redefine marriage while others’ marriages are infected with infidelity and pornography.

Will our faith survive our circumstances? The heroes of Hebrews 11 include ordinary people like us who believed God despite no immediate response to their prayers for deliverance.
