Why is Christian Unity so Important? Charles Stanley

Scripture is clear about the church’s mission. Some of its highest goals include sharing the gospel with all nations, caring for those in need, and worshiping together, along with loving, encouraging, and admonishing one another in God’s truth. None of these is fully possible if a church is divided, whether physically or mentally.

The Responsibility of Freedom in Christ? Charles Stanley

In his first letter to the church at Corinth, Paul tells Christians that freedom in Christ is a serious responsibility. What did he mean by that?

Building Faith on the Wrong Foundation? Greg Laurie

One reason people fall away from the faith is because they have built their faith on the wrong foundation. This even happened with first-century believers.

Should “Peace” Guide Our Decisions? Greg Koukl

Colossians 3:15 is a text that is constantly misunderstood by well-meaning Christians. Paul writes, “And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts.” Some have accurately pointed out that the Greek word for “rule” means to act as arbiter or judge. They see this verse as a tool for knowing God’s will for our lives.

Feeling Stagnant? Are You Running the Race? Jack Graham

In Hebrews 12:1–2, the author of Hebrews compares living the spiritual live to running a race. Now imagine running a race with barbells on your shoulders or wearing scuba diving equipment. While that sounds ridiculous, it’s essentially what many Christians try to do when they hold onto sin in their lives!

What Sin That Leads to Death Did John Mean? J. Vernon McGee

If a believer commits that sin and persists in it, there will come a day when God will reach down and take that child of His out of this world by death. In other words, death would be the judgment of God upon him, removing him from the scene and place of witness.

The World: Love It or Hate It? Tullian Tchividjian

Have you ever wondered why the Bible seems to be guilty of double-talk when speaking of "the world"?

Recovery through Sanctification? John Barnett

Christ's New Testament church was born into a sin-warped, dark-hearted world of mixed-up marriages, sin-scarred lives, and confused families.

The Joy of Completion? John Barnett

In our spiritual lives God says that we are "complete in Christ" (Col. 2:9).

Titus: A Checkup for Women? John Barnett

God says all ladies young and old are to either be living this way, or be headed towards living this way.

Peter's Letters: Evidence of a Radical Change? Stephen Davey
