Satan uses demons to influence and indwell people, leaving behind a trail of destructive choices and actions. The victims of these actions are then left with pasts that are hard to deal with. But God can turn victims into victors.
Running the race of life is hard. Yet with the Bible front and center and a heart to encourage, Dr. Erwin Lutzer, Pastor Emeritus of the historic Moody Church in Chicago, takes listeners on a journey into the Word to help them make it across the finish line. Dr. Lutzer shares the good news of the gospel each day on Running to Win.
Only God can help us discover who we really are. Over time, we can become accustomed to denying our reality and who we’ve become. In this message from Psalm 139, Pastor Lutzer outlines three steps to freedom from denial from King David’s prayer. There is a way out of the pit called denial.
We all have unfinished business—shifting blame, avoiding pain, or even living in an illusion. Why are we so willing to live in denial? In this message, Pastor Lutzer addresses the seven symptoms of denial, including emotional numbness, a lack of trust, being a selective listener, and more. God can meet us in whatever we can’t face.
What is biblical masculinity? Men are created to be protectors and providers, but they often fall into passivity or domineering. In this message, Pastor Lutzer studies the characteristics of Jesus Himself in His masculinity. Both women and men can experience a whole new freedom if we look to Jesus.
Human sexuality is a gift from God. But since the beginning of time, both men and women have experienced confusion and conflict in their roles and sexuality. In this message from Genesis 2, Pastor Lutzer focuses on men’s role in the home and society. If men and women’s roles are distinct, what are men made to be?
Without communication, there cannot be love. In a broken world that’s tearing apart, we want to hide from each other and ultimately from God. In this message, Pastor Lutzer offers hope to couples, families, and relationships fractured by barriers and hostility. God has made a way to cover the shame of our sin and brokenness.
