  • Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast - Balancing Life's Demands - How to Escape the Rat Race... Forever!, Part 2

    Chip wraps up this series with an important reminder of what it takes to be truly successful in your spiritual life, in your relationships, and in your finances.

    The root problem in priority living according to Jesus is MATERIALISM.

    Matthew 6:1-18

    • Two motives
    • Two treasures
    • Two eyes
    • Two masters

    Summary: Do not allow the pursuit of material things to thwart your spiritual development.

    Question:

    • How can we live in a material world without becoming materialistic? -Matthew 6:24-34

    The symptom:

    • Anxiety is the mark of a life preoccupied with material things.

    The explanation: Stop your preoccupation with material things because...

    1. It's short-sighted –Matthew 6:25b
    2. It's illogical –Matthew 6:28-30
    3. It's unprofitable –Matthew 6:27
    4. It's disgraceful to God –Matthew 6:30-32

    The promise:

    • If you will pursue knowing Christ and making Him known as your first priority, He will meet all your material needs. -Matthew 6:33-34

    Application: Questions to Ponder

    • Are you "spending" or "investing" your life?
    • Is your life making a significant difference in the lives of others?
    • Do you live under "pressure" or under "priorities"?
    • Do your time, talent, and treasure reflect that pursuing Christ and making Him known is your #1 priority?

  • Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram Daily Podcast - Balancing Life's Demands - Warning: Personal Discipline Can be Hazardous to Your Health, Part 2

    You’re doing all the right things - reading your Bible, going to church, being generous with your finances - but you feel spiritually dead inside. What’s wrong? Chip shares how to break the spiritual activity trap and begin experiencing the peace and power you’re longing for.

    To what degree have you taken specific steps in the following areas? (1=none; 2=little; 3=started & doing okay; 4=making good progress; 5=vigorously pursuing)

    • Objectives: Moving from vague ideas to specific decisions about the kind of person I want to become and what I want to accomplish.
    • Priorities: Ordering my life in such a way that the important and eternal are not forfeited by the "pressing" and the "urgent."
    • Schedule: Determining specifically how and when I will place the important and eternal in my daily life.
    • Discipline: Doing what needs to be done when it needs to be done.
    • Accountability: Enlisting the support of those who love me to help me keep my commitments to God.

    Jesus' Warning #1: In our pursuit of "seeking first" His righteousness there is the danger of DISTORTION.

    Application of Matthew 5:20 to...

    • Murder –5:21-26
    • Adultery –5:27-30
    • Divorce –5:31-32
    • Oaths –5:33-37
    • Retribution –5:38-41
    • Enemies –5:43-48

    Jesus' Warning #2: In our pursuit of "seeking first" His righteousness there is also the danger of DECEPTION. -Matthew 6:1-18

    • Giving: Key Issue = MOTIVE -Matthew 6:1-4
    • Prayer: Key Issue = DISCERNMENT -Matthew 6:5-8
    • Fasting: Key Issue = PERSPECTIVE -Matthew 6:16-18

    Application: SECRECY is God's method of keeping our motives pure.
