Running To Win

Dr. Erwin W. Lutzer

The Gift Of Fulfillment, Part 1 of 2 (When The Spirit Has His Way)

October 3, 2019

There’s more than one kind of thirst. Water takes care of physical thirst. But when we feel a thirst in our hearts, there’s only one place to find that kind of water. Let’s look at a dramatic setting, where Jesus proclaimed Himself as the source of living water.

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 the disciples of Jesus heard He was about to be taken from them, they felt a deep sense of abandonment. How gracious Jesus was to promise them a Companion who would be even closer to them than Jesus was while on Earth. Moreover, their Companion is also our Companion.

Jesus promised His disciples a companion who would be with them after He was gone. That companion is the Holy Spirit, and He’s still doing for today’s believers what He did for the original twelve so long ago. If you feel lonely, listen to this encouraging word.

We learn about the Holy Spirit by seeing His work in terms of word-pictures: oil, water, and wind. Each picture increases our understanding, and in this message we’ll learn about another word-picture that speaks of the power and purity of the Spirit.

The work of the Holy Spirit has been a source of controversy in the church for a long time. What does He do? What is His ministry? In this message, we begin a life-changing series that tells what happens “When the Spirit Has His Way.” And wonderful things do happen when the Blessed Spirit of God has His way.

A person of integrity runs life’s race without lying, and without ever stretching the truth. If you find a person like this, you’ve found a rare jewel. Character is vital, and in this message we hear more about the characteristics of a man or woman of integrity.
September 26, 2019
It’s in great demand, but in short supply. It’s easy to spot, but hard to find. That rare “something” is integrity. People of integrity are honest and forthright, and they have the reputations to prove it. Would you like to improve your integrity score in the race of life?

Life is a race. Helping a brother or sister stay on track is more important than flaunting your Christian liberty. Don’t be a stumbling block to the household of God.
September 24, 2019
Many who run life’s race are tripped up by the conduct of believers around them, conduct they feel is inappropriate. How should we judge the behavior of others? Or, is it our business to judge at all?
September 23, 2019
As we run our daily race, there is an unseen spirit world running as well. Demons try to subvert the purposes of God in the life of every believer. Our task is to discern the danger, and avoid opening the many doors that can lead us there.
September 20, 2019
Occult influence is very real, enshrined in modern philosophies as well as the media: music, TV, and the movies. As believers running the race of life, we must understand what we’re facing, and how to deal with it.
