- 265The Promise Of BaptismFaith requires action, not grand gestures but simple obedience. Like Naaman’s healing, transformation comes from trusting God’s Word. Salvation is through Christ alone, and believers must boldly live out their faith. Baptism symbolizes this transformation—dying to sin and rising in new life. Jesus calls us to confess Him before others, ensuring His acknowledgment before the Father in heaven.
- 266The Promise Of Success & GuidanceTrue success comes from seeking God’s guidance, understanding His promises, and living without deceit. Psalm 32 reveals the weight of unconfessed sin, the relief of repentance, and the joy of restoration. Through reflection (Selah), believers recognize their need for forgiveness, embrace God’s mercy, and experience His power. Faithful obedience leads to divine guidance and true fulfillment.
- 267The Childhood of JesusThe hidden childhood years of Jesus reveal an important principle for effective parenting. If you want to help your children determine their life purpose and realize all that God wants to build into their lives, provide opportunities for them to spend time with their Heavenly Father.
- 268The Temptation of JesusWe have all experienced how circumstances can change in an instant, and mountain top experiences may be followed by moments of despair. Fortunately, when we learn to turn to God in our brokenness and pain, He can turn even our lowest moments physically into our highest moments of spiritual power and strength.
- 269Reach Out and TouchGod desires to be with us, to touch us, and to be relevant in our lives. The Bible tells us that God is nearer than any of us can imagine or understand. We can trust Him to be present and available to His children in every circumstance of life.
- 270Deep HealingEverything good happens at the feet of Jesus! That is where healing, and restoration, and forgiveness begin. Spend time at the feet of Jesus and you will begin to see yourself, and the world around you, in a way you have never seen them before.
- 271Debt of GratitudeWhen we are confronted with the big issues of life, it is not the strength of our faith that will matter, but the object of that faith. Because Jesus has the power and the authority to meet every need in our lives, we can confidently place our faith in Him.
- 272The Idol of ChristianityThe four Gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—offer biographies of Jesus, inspired by the Holy Spirit. Together, they reveal God's story as He walked on earth. Jesus embodied the Kingdom of God, teaching through parables, miracles, and His life. Dr. Young's message shows how to live as "Kingdom kids," with faith that grows, like wheat among tares, awaiting the final harvest.
- 273The Idol of Non-CommitmentThe Kingdom of God is at the heart of Jesus' message—spoken of over 200 times in the Gospels. Jesus' teachings reveal its nature, its mystery, and how one enters. Through parables, he illustrates the Kingdom's hidden value, like treasure in a field or a pearl of great price—worth everything. True disciples, like scribes, are called to teach and share its truths, living as Kingdom citizens.
- 274The Idol of SelfDr. Young walks through Jesus’ life in the Gospels. Now, we reach Luke 15—one of the greatest chapters in the Bible—where Jesus tells three unforgettable parables about lostness. A lost sheep. A lost coin. A lost son. The message? We’re all lost in some way—but the good news is, God is searching for us.
- 275The Idol of GreedJesus’ teachings in Luke 12 reveal profound truths about life, greed, and God’s kingdom. Amidst thousands, He warned against the unpardonable sin, emphasized our value to God, and challenged us to live as kingdom people. When interrupted by a man demanding inheritance rights, Jesus used the moment to expose greed’s dangers, teaching that life isn’t defined by possessions but by our relationship with God.
- 276The Idol of PoliticsEllis Island was a beacon of hope from 1892 to 1934, where countless immigrants sought freedom. The desire to "breathe free" remains vital today, yet our freedoms face challenges. In Luke 10, Jesus redefines "neighbor" through the Good Samaritan parable, challenging us to love beyond limits. True justification isn’t earned—it comes through Christ, calling us to compassionate, transformative action.
- 277RememberGod’s purpose for our lives is so much bigger than our personal agendas. But we can miss it unless we are prepared to listen to Him and allow Him to redirect our steps. Don’t be surprised when God allows you to experience a watershed event that will result in a deeper realization that His way works, every time and in every circumstance.
- 278SurrenderWhen God becomes your Commander-in-Chief, you will be ready to follow wherever He leads. And when trouble comes, if God is in charge, there is never any doubt about the outcome. Victory is certain. Learn this, and you will have discovered the key to a life of joy and fulfillment.
- 279Ordinary PeopleThe Bible is filled with the accounts of men and women our culture would regard as unlikely, ordinary individuals. But these are the very people God often uses in extraordinary ways. Before you allow yourself to doubt what God can do through you, remember this: Little is much when God is in it!
- 280An Unlikely HeroWhen you take that first step of obedience you will discover that if the Lord is on your side, nothing else matters.
- 281Breaking Down WallsWe all need the gospel. No one is so good that he does not need it, or so low or destitute that he cannot receive it. The wonder of God’s grace is that, once we have acknowledged our need for it, nothing will keep us from receiving the new life which only Jesus can provide.
- 282RedefinedWhat we truly believe should determine the way we live. But when we are honest with God, and with ourselves, we admit that we are not always sensitive to the things of God. We need to seek His forgiveness, and be restored through His grace and His love, so we can return to the right side of the Cross.
- 283The Company You KeepCome as you are. The invitation of the gospel is clear. Whatever your background, there is a place for you in the body of Christ. God takes the broken pieces of our lives and puts them back together as He adopts us into His family and transforms us – inside and out.
- 284The BodyWhat we do with our bodies matters to God. That is why, in today’s sexualized culture, we need to be reminded of the clear biblical guidelines God has provided, and the boundaries He has put in place, to protect our bodies, preserve our physical and emotional health, and help us remain true to our identity in Christ.
- 285Sticking to the PlaybookWhen you invite Jesus to be your Life Coach, He will point you to the Playbook that provides His game plan for the abundant life. This Playbook, the Bible, will teach you how to get out of the stands and into the thrilling experience of a life that works.
- 286PurityTo exert a positive influence on our families and our culture, we must be pure in our motives, thoughts, and lifestyle. But impurity can creep into our lives, one small step at a time, unless we avoid the dangers of the gradualism that draws our minds and our bodies away from a walk of obedience and service.
- 287The Dance of MarriageA good marriage exhibits timing, balance, strength and beauty. The Holy Spirit is the choreographer who provides the instructions and empowers the husband and wife, in full partnership, to dance this wonderful dance of marriage according to God’s design.
- 288Resolving Marital ConflictThere is conflict in any relationship, and marriage is no exception. But there is good news. Whether your marriage is in SOS mode or is simply “so-so,” these clear and practical instructions will help you speak the truth in love and get your relationship back on the road to success.
