Christians often sense a gap between the life they’re living and the life Scripture describes—a Spirit-empowered life marked by joy, wisdom, and self-control. The problem is rarely a lack of desire. It’s a lack of understanding about what “being filled with the Spirit” actually means.

From Ephesians 5:15–21, Pastor Chuck Swindoll explains Paul’s command to “be filled with the Spirit”—what it is, what it is not, and what it looks like in daily life through speech, song, thankfulness, and mutual submission.

Stop settling for a half-lived Christian life. Learn what it means to be controlled by the Spirit and walk each day in the fulness He provides!

Of the three persons of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit is the least understood and the most neglected. He is reduced to a ghost, a mystical force, or—in many churches—simply ignored. But He is none of those things. He is a person. He is God.

Drawing from key passages across Scripture, Pastor Chuck Swindoll dismantles the myths surrounding the Holy Spirit and introduces listeners to the third member of the Godhead—His personality, His deity, and His active role in the life of every believer.

Get reacquainted with the Spirit of power. Learn who He truly is and let that knowledge transform the way you experience your walk with God!

The world has little patience for what it considers foolish or weak—and by that standard, a crucified Saviour ranks near the bottom. The temptation to polish the gospel, soften its edges, and make it more culturally respectable is as strong today as it was in Paul’s day.

From 1 Corinthians 1:18–2:5, Pastor Chuck Swindoll explores Paul’s resolute commitment to preach Christ crucified—not with worldly wisdom or rhetorical brilliance, but with straightforward confidence in the power of the cross to save.

Refuse to be ashamed of the cross. What the world calls foolishness is the power of God—and that is more than enough!

Our culture lionises the powerful, the aggressive, and the bold. Meekness is mistaken for weakness, and silence under pressure is seen as defeat. But centuries before the cross, Isaiah described a Servant who would be despised, rejected, and silent—and through whose wounds we would be healed.

Pastor Chuck Swindoll opens Isaiah 53:3–7 to show how Jesus fulfilled the portrait of the suffering Servant—the Lamb who went to slaughter in silence, bearing our griefs and carrying our sorrows as our substitute.

Find your hope in the Lamb who was slain for you. True strength is not the absence of suffering but the willingness to bear it for others!
