The Healthy Soul, Part 1: Wholeness
September 19, 2010 |
|
|
|
|
|
| If we were to visit our two original parents, Adam and Eve, we would be struck with awe at the wholeness which integrated every part of their being. When mankind chose to sin, the wholeness was fractured. Soul, mind, spirit, and heart were split apart and are now at war within every person. We battle with plants and animals. We fight with each other. Worst, we are mobilized against God in our fallen condition. How can our fractured inner selves be restored? |

September 26, 2010 |
|
|
|
|
|
| What is the place of sad and glad tears in the life of a believer? Are they just the product goofy emotion, or is there truth in them? |

October 3, 2010 |
|
|
|
|

The Healthy Soul, Part 4: Giving
October 17, 2010 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Is the teaching of Christian giving just a way for bleak-hearted old men to extract money to pay the bills? On the contrary, come see how it is actually the doorway to the sweetest things in the Christian life. |
The Healthy Soul, Part 5: Connecting
October 31, 2010 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Jesus violated a long list of social rules to connect with a fallen woman at a well in Sychar. His relentless pursuit of connection is a key that unlocks the door to eternal life. |
The Healthy Soul, Part 6: Anger
November 14, 2010 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Unconfessed anger corrodes our souls and makes us vulnerable to spiritual attack. Learn God's plan for dealing with it. |
The Healthy Soul, Part 7: Stalling Out
January 16, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Even Jesus' disciples had times when they found themselves stalled out, so we should not be surprised when it happens to us. But what to do about it? |
The Healthy Soul, Part 8: Assessment by Mouth
January 23, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Jesus said the mouth is the CATSCAN of the soul. What do your words say about the health of your soul? |
The Healthy Soul, Part 9: Emotions
January 30, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Jesus displayed pure emotions ranging from joy to sadness. Ours are not so pure! How can we bring change to wayward emotions? |
The Healthy Soul, Part 10: Affections
February 6, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Is faith a merely cognitive decision which has reality only in the mind, or do the emotions of the soul play a part? What is the connection between love for God and faith? |
The Healthy Soul, Part 11: Fuel
February 13, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| You were made by God with at least four fuel tanks: heart, soul, mind, and strength. You'll flame out if you do not have a plan for filling them! |

February 20, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Is America on the verge of an economic apocalypse? Maybe. But the best things in life don't cost anything. |
The Healthy Soul, Part 13: Conscience
March 20, 2011 |
|
|
|
|
|
| What has happened to the conscience of a nation that can tolerate more abortions in the last few decades than all of the soldiers who have died in all of the wars from the entire history of America? An encounter between David and King Saul shows us the way to a restored conscience. |
The Healthy Soul, Part 14: The Love Cure

|
|
|
| What has happened to the conscience of a nation that can tolerate more abortions in the last few decades than all of the soldiers who have died in all of the wars from the entire history of America? An encounter between David and King Saul shows us the way to a restored conscience. |
