christian powerful temptation
Money is emphasized in Scripture simply because our temptation to love it is inexplicably powerful.

We cannot say no to temptation without saying yes to something far better.

Each temptation leaves us better or worse; neutrality is impossible.

God does not make our choices easier because temptation is his character development curriculum.

I think that as Christians we need to walk the delicate balance between standing in opposition to same-sex marriages and yet showing that we can do that without becoming angry or hateful.
eye hair color
We must distinguish between genes that cause physical characteristics, like the color of your eyes or hair, over which you have no control, and what we could call 'behavioral dispositions'. We are responsible for our behavior, no matter what those dispositions are.
sex people support
We need a broad-based coalition that is way beyond the bounds of Christianity to be able to help people to understand that there is a groundswell of support for the marriage amendment and for opposition to same-sex marriages.
heart exercise emotional
Worship is not just an emotional exercise but a response of the heart built on truth about God.
christmas celebration celebrate
Christmas can be transformed into a celebration more attuned to honoring the One whose birthday we celebrate.
christmas country brother
Our brothers and sisters in Muslim countries can't celebrate Christmas-or any aspect of their faith-openly for fear of persecution and death. And yet we, with all our freedoms, often choose to make Christmas a celebration of commercialism!
wisdom spiritual maturity
There are no shortcuts to spiritual maturity. It takes time to be holy.
