The Tale of Two Graves #1 of 4

Charles Darwin made history with On the Origin of Species. This book helped launch evolution on its way...

The battle lines are drawn. Christians believe in a Creator God. Evolutionists believe in random chance. The bottom line: if there's no God, there's no one to judge our behavior. And a lot of people would like that just fine. Today: we begin a series on "The Darwin Delusion."

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.

Being stuck in the occult is like being stuck in the mud. You may need some help to get free...help that God provides... There is a way out of the bondage of Satanic influence, a bondage that's trapping all too many Christians. Today: renouncing the occult's doctrines of demons, and turning once again to the only truth that sets us free. Please stay with us.

Like the serpent that beguiled Eve, the devil's substitutes for God look good...very good. That's why the occult is so popular..... ....but the occult's teachings are the doctrines of demons...doctrines that bring death rather than life. These are doctrines Christians must avoid like the plague they really are. Today: what those doctrines teach, and why they are so dangerous. Please stay with us.

Satan has many disguises, and he'll do anything to draw our attention away from God. That's why the occult is so prevalent. These days, many people believe more in ghosts than in the living God. We build buildings without thirteenth floors and worry about black cats. Today: we'll expose these superstitions for what they really are: Satanic deceptions. Please stay with us.
November 12, 2009
The occult: more than Ouija boards. It's the kids who shoot up high schools, and each other. It's a trap we must avoid..... Our culture is tuned to the frequency of occult phenomena like never before. Behind the entertaining face of horoscopes lies the grim visage of demonic powers. Today: how the committed Christian should treat this form of deception. Stay with us.

We've got a hundred cable channels, 22 theater screens, DVDs, the Internet, and Facebook. Hey...who needs more? Today's Christians are awash in a sea of pleasures. We've got time for our plasma TV's and surround-sound movies, but do we have time for God? On this broadcast: we'll all hear a challenge to get our priorities straight. Please stay with us.

Our culture says, "If it feels good, do it." So...does having a desire mean it's always OK to satisfy it? .......no...you can't yell "fire" in a crowded theater because you feel like it. While we all have desires, the Christian satisfies those desires in godly ways. Today: how to live for Christ in a world that's focused on pleasures. Please stay with us.

The TV commercial once said: "You only go around once in life. Grab all the gusto you can." That's not a bad idea. .......but the gusto you should grab is probably not what most people have in mind. A lot of Christians are falling victim to the mad dash for self-fulfillment. Today: you'll hear a challenge to a pleasure-mad culture that's infecting the church. Stay with us.

No one involved in sexual promiscuity really wants to be there. They are trapped, looking desperately for a way out.... It's said that all of Satan's apples have worms...and too many Christians have bitten into casual sex. But God has given us a way out of the lifestyle of so-called sexual freedom. Today: words of hope from the Bible for those caught in the web of sexual sin.
November 5, 2009
If we could see the scars we'll bear when we break God's laws on sexual behavior, we'd never break them in the first place...... .......God designed our greatest sexual fulfillment to be in a covenant marriage relationship, not in a succession of one-night stands. Casual sex leaves behind some not-so-casual memories...memories that create bondage. Today: the myth of sexual freedom.
November 4, 2009
God intended marriage to be permanent. But our culture says marriages can be broken when a better deal comes along...... .......however, that better deal carries with it some heavy baggage: the psychological burden of multiple sexual bonds, and the fragmented families left behind. Today: more on the sexual revolution's dark side, and why God's design for marriage is the only one that works.
