STS Study Excerpt: The Integrity of True Humility
Father, broaden my vision of the greatness of Christ. Draw me nearer to Him so that I can see nothing else but His glory, His beauty, His grace. Help me to consider every event in my life as an opportunity to give Him praise.
What a Way to Live!
Circumstances are ever changing, like the comings and goings of the tide. But a Christ-centred life is rock solid—it's the only way to live.
The Integrity of Pressing On
Father, thank You for a model like Paul. He wasn’t perfect, but he had an enduring determination and he persevered through adversity. He pressed on, in season and out of season. Give me the tenacity to do the same.
Laughing through Life's Dilemmas
The Philippians faced a dilemma, a dilemma that challenged them, as it will us, to pick either the rock or the hard place.
Three Cheers for the Church
Pastor Chuck Swindoll shares from Philippians 1:1–18 and 23–27 that even the apostle Paul experienced disillusionment with those in the church. Consider what Paul concluded, and let your perspective be renewed as you listen.
Arrested, Confined, but Still Effective
Discover with Pastor Chuck Swindoll the key to contentment and how to live above your circumstances.
Counting the Cost and Following Through
Starting is always easier than finishing, which is why follow through is a reflection of character. Besides, God doesn't quit on us, so why should we give up when the going gets tough?
Refusing to Blend
God is looking for men and women whose hearts are completely His. He wants to use you—you are uniquely placed in your situation to reach people for Christ in your sphere of influence. Never underestimate the difference you can make simply by refusing to blend in. The way you live can help someone find God.
Living Above Your Circumstances
It’s a waste of energy to fight the inevitables of life. The attitudes you fill your mind with will shape how you respond to life, so choose godly attitudes like joy, humility, encouragement, forgiveness, and love.
