Christian Living
The Christian life is difficult sometimes, isn't it? God asks us to leave behind our selfishness and devote ourselves to Jesus Christ in the service of others. This journey has a clear beginning and an even clearer end, but its path is littered with dangerous obstructions and precarious curves. Thankfully, its destination provides lasting, eternal rewards.
Chances are you have experienced the difficulty of losing your way on the journey. We've all been tempted to stray, to step away from the fundamentals of authentic Christian living toward the more immediate fulfilments we desire for ourselves. But God calls us to a life devoted to studying the Scriptures, to prayer, and most important, to knowing Christ Himself.
Let these resources remind you that the goal isn't just reaching our heavenly destination but walking closely with Jesus as we get there.
It's All About Me
The “it’s all about me” attitude may be cute on a child, but it isn’t so cute on adults. Selfishness isn’t something we outgrow as we age. It takes a conscious effort to put others before ourselves.
Maturity, Wisdom, and Understanding
Maturity doesn’t happen overnight. It’s developed over the long haul by applying God’s Word to your everyday life.

Are you an "if only" person or an "in spite of" person? Chuck Swindoll challenges your excuses for not being a joyful believer in this month's Video Insight.
Infectious Preaching
Walking by faith is never boring; in fact we can become kind of infectious. Each day we have an opportunity to draw others closer to Christ by living out the Gospel.
Burning Bushes
When God wants us in His service sometimes that means rearranging our priorities and putting our pursuits on hold.
Taking Problems by the Throat
Discover how Nehemiah handled this failure as you listen to Pastor Chuck Swindoll’s message on Nehemiah 13. The ancient leader’s gracious, prayerful, and firm example remains relevant as a helpful standard for us today.
Happiness Is a Walk on the Wall
When Nehemiah finally completed the reconstruction of Jerusalem’s wall in Nehemiah 12:27–47, the Israelites met the accomplishment with hymns in praise to God. After decades of darkness, the people could see that God truly was moving among His people! Find joy with Pastor Chuck Swindoll as he demonstrates how the secret to happiness is continual trust in God.
The Willing Unknowns
Nehemiah 11 recognizes the “willing unknowns,” a special group of people who served a vital function in Jerusalem but never saw their names in lights. We will consider also our own sacrificial service and learn to appreciate those who work behind-the-scenes in our homes, workplaces, and realms of leadership.

Put first things first with Pastor Chuck Swindoll as he demonstrates the importance of placing God above every other demand.
