What is causing so many men and women to radically dismiss and depart from the Scriptural model of Christian sexuality? Almost on a weekly basis, I hear, “I know what the Scriptures have to say about living within God’s holy boundary lines regarding sexual expression; however, I am going to follow my feelings and emotions […]

When our path crosses with a struggling youth, we need to be open to partnering with the Lord to help turn the tide in his or her life. During adolescence, most people determine the morals and personal identity they will embrace for the remainder of their life. Likewise, much confusion and challenges will take place […]

Today, much of American culture has been consumed by the grip of political correctness with regard to homosexuality and related issues. Any public expression of disagreement with any aspect of the homosexual movement, or with homosexuality itself, is met with accusations of homophobia and verbal gay-bashing.

When I originally offered the article titled, “You Won’t Blow Up!” which focused on the subject of “celibacy” and how the God-given mandate and calling for single men and women goes against the normal flow of our culture, a culture which promotes a love of pleasure and self-indulgence.

While many continue to preach, “If it feels good do it!” and “Since everyone is doing it and doing […]

The Bible teaches that God not only takes care of our past, He transforms our present and assures our future. Scripture clearly shows us that at the Cross God smashed the iron doors which Satan had used to imprison us.

Among the many issues the Church faces today, none is more important than how the Church ministers to men and women with sexual and relational brokenness.

Does failure compel you away from God, or compel you to cast yourself on His grace? We are all on a journey of obedience and along the way we experience God’s healing hand. Sometimes our path is marked by absolute ecstasy of His presence, but sometimes it s marked by our will to obey Him […]

In essence, we have become a culture who now worships itself as God, not only in mind and body, but also in destiny and purpose. We sanction this ‘religion’ through feeling and experience while pronouncing all truth to be relative. How incredibly convenient is that? We are a people driven, controlled and consumed by our […]

In a workshop for parents with children involved in homosexuality, I was asked, “How do I pray for my same-sex attracted son/daughter?” Since the roots of same-sex attraction are complex, it would be a mistake to suppose that a one-method prayer approach would be universally successful. First and foremost, if we want to get results […]
