#526 - A Firm Foundation: Scandalous Love and Lavish Mercy

When you know that you've sinned terribly against God, where do you find the confidence to go back to Him? How can you know that He will be willing to receive you? Today we'll look at two passages that shed light on one of the most precious truths about God: He is full of mercy toward anyone who will repent.

#525 - A Firm Foundation: Beware of Evil!

George Barna recently reported that over 75 percent of Americans read the Bible once a month or less. According to Jesus, that is a recipe for spiritual devastation. Join us for our newest series, where you will be inspired and equipped to begin a life of studying God's precious word!

#524 - Help: I have no support!

In times of extreme need, people often claim that they have no one to help them. But how often is that actually true, and how often is that just a feeling?

#523 - Stephen and Kelly’s Story of Hope: Bright Light in Horrible Darkness

There is no doubt that sexual sin and betrayal brings men and women into long seasons of terrible darkness. But Jesus is the light of the world! In this episode, Stephen and Kelly Hauck share very openly about their past life of sin and suffering to show that in times of greatest darkness, the light of Christ shines with incredible brightness.

#522 - The True Grace of God Does a Powerful Work

When the Apostle Peter urged Christians to stand fast in the true grace of God, he implied that there is a false grace that we must avoid. We are living in a culture that is saturated with sensuality and perversion. We don't need a grace that leaves us unforgiven, unsaved and unchanged. We need something real, something full of life and power. In this episode, we play a sermon by Steve Gallagher where he shows us what true grace is, and what it's not.

#521 - Should Christians Use the Word Addiction?

In this episode, we're going to ask the question, "Should Christians use the word addiction?" To help answer that question, Dr. Daniel Berger helps us understand what the culture means by addiction and whether or not the Bible gives credence to those ideas.

#520 - Worldliness is the Bane of a Pure Heart

In this episode, we look at two strategies for winning the war against sexual sin. The first is that we have to seperate ourselves from the spirit of this world. The second is that, as we do this, we must begin to seek God with all our hearts.

#518 - Putting Jesus in His Rightful Place | Danielle’s Story of Hope

There have been many testimonies told from those who've gone through our counseling programs. Some of those testimonies are so similar to each other that they can become almost predictable, but we never get tired of hearing them. There is something powerful about God's individual, intimate involvement with each person that He comes to. In this episode, we walk through the story of Danielle. She had a relationship with Jesus from a young age, but for a long time, there wasn't much depth to her walk with God. She wanted to follow Jesus, but there were things that were really hindering her. And then her husband’s sexual sin really brought things to a head, and God used that trial to really draw her to Himself.

#352 (Replay) - Should I Marry a Guy Struggling with Porn?

We see it all too often. And we see it from both sides. There is the man who is struggling with sexual sin, with his addiction to pornography, but he thinks, “My problem will all go away when I get married.” Then there is the young woman who knows of her fiancé’s struggles, but she marries him anyway, thinking the same thing: “Marriage will fix him.” In this Purity for Life episode from 2019, we answer the question “Should I Marry a Man Struggling with Porn?”
