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.
Many wounded people feel no one could possibly understand the pain they feel. In fact, Christianity is the only religion in the world that has a God who is wounded. In this message, Pastor Lutzer shares five facts regarding the wounds of Christ. Jesus is with us on the path to restoration.
When we fall victim to anger, jealousy, or obsessions, we usually are tearing apart inside. We feel unloved and loveless. Pastor Lutzer identifies three wounds which make it difficult for us to love. Let’s listen to a personal letter from a church member who wanted to love again.
Whether its addictions, sexual fixations, or eating disorders, obsessions can ruin our lives. The devil and his angels will keep trying to exploit our human weakness. In this message, Pastor Lutzer describes how Jesus helps us defeat our obsessions like the demoniac set free. Jesus can confront us where we are and restore us to dignity.
Not every addiction is demonic. But we all are driven by unwanted thoughts and behavior which drive us to hate, to consume, and to obsess. In this message, Pastor Lutzer paints a picture of Jesus confronting a man possessed by a legion of demons. Only Jesus can fill our emptiness with lasting hope.

In this message from Psalm 27, Pastor Lutzer shows three areas which expose jealously in our hearts: control, companionship, and contentment. Are we willing to relinquish control?
