    Oct 22 2024

    Dr. Erwin Lutzer, former pastor of Moody Church, explains how three influential thinkers—Marx, Darwin, and Freud—shaped modern America's cultural crisis. Drawing from his books "The Eclipse of God" and "We Will Not Be Silenced," Lutzer breaks down how cultural Marxism, Darwinian evolution, and sexual revolution have systematically undermined faith, family, and freedom.

    Learn how:

    • Marx's ideology continues to influence education and social policy
    • Darwin's theory impacts views on human value and life
    • Freud's ideas revolutionized society's approach to sexuality
    • Cultural Marxism differs from classical Marxism
    • Propaganda shapes public opinion despite contrary evidence
    • The family unit is being deliberately targeted
    • Socialist dependency is replacing family stability

    Dr. Lutzer offers hope for Christians navigating these challenging times while warning about the dangers of compromising with culture. Essential viewing for understanding today's social and cultural battles.

  • God's Remedy For Your Anxiety
    Oct 1 2024

    Order Jonny Ardavanis' new book, "Consider the Lilies: Finding Perfect Peace In the Character of God (Zondervan)."

    https://a.co/d/05ov6UlA


    Find freedom from anxiety as you lift your gaze from the problems and pressures of this world to the changeless and powerful character of your heavenly Father.


    Is my cancer back? Is my job secure? Will I ever get married? Are my children safe? Our lives are often a chronicle of trouble, pain, and uncertainty--and God's children yearn for peace. Many who wrestle with anxiety and despair know that the Bible calls them to "trust God," but what does that even mean?

    In Consider the Lilies, pastor, podcaster, and speaker Jonny Ardavanis shows us God's consistent response to those who are worn down by worry and badgered by melancholy: He proclaims His own character. Drawing on that perspective-shifting model, Jonny offers biblical insight on how to ground our thoughts and fix our gaze on who God is.

    Compassionate, biblical, and timely, Consider the Lilies explores:

    • How dwelling on the character of God is the surest pathway to peace
    • The root causes of anxiety and worry in the Bible
    • What the Bible says about the integration of our physical and spiritual lives
    • Why worry grieves God's heart as our Father

    Consider the Lilies is for those who long for liberation from their anxiety and fear--and desire to deeply know the God they are called and enabled to trust. If you are starved for hope and gasping for peace, consider the character of your heavenly Father, who welcomes all who are anxious, fearful, and melancholy to trust in Him.
