The Well

Does your wife feel like a treasure—or taken for granted? In this raw and practical episode, Dave Wilson dialogues with pastors Rechab Gray and Ike Todd as they talk man-to-man about humility in marriage, accountability, and loving like Jesus when it’s hardest. From awkward confrontations to life-changing repentance, they show how God uses community and surrender to transform us as husbands—and help marriages become safe, life-giving places again.

Do you like who you are? When you look in the mirror do you like what you see? Or do you wish you were a little taller, or a little stronger, or a bit thinner? When you think about you, do you like yourself or do you struggle with feelings of inferiority? Chip shares three keys to developing a positive, healthy self-image.

Distorted mirrors destroy our lives:

• The Appearance Mirror
• The Performance Mirror
• The Status Mirror

Thesis – Until we see ourselves as God sees us, we are destined to FEEL INFERIOR.

3 keys to a Biblical self-image:

1. Get God’s View of You = KNOWLEDGE

You are significant because:

• You're UNIQUE -Gen 1:27, Ps 139:13-14
• You're LOVED -1 Sam 16:7, Jer 31:3
• You're VALUABLE -1 Cor 6:19-20
• You're SECURE -Eph 1:13
• You're INDISPENSIBLE -Eph 2:10, 4:15-16

2. Believe God’s View is True = FAITH

• Faith is built on God’s Word -Rom 10:17
• Faith grows through mind renewal -Rom 12:2
• Develop a plan to remove the distorted mirrors of the world with the mirror of God’s Word -Jam 1:22-24

3. Discover the “You” that’s True = EXPERIENCE

• Unwrap your SPIRITUAL GIFTS -1 Cor 12, Rom 12
• Unleash your SPIRITUAL PASSION -Ps 37:4
• Use your God-given TALENTS -Ex 31:3
• Embrace your God-given PERSONALITY -1 Cor 2:11
• Leverage your past EXPERIENCE -Rom 8:28

Ministry is how God makes what’s true “of” us, true “in” us. Sometimes it’s only in the act of “loving others: that we can fathom that we ourselves are loved!

Passion for the church! A good thing, right? But does that passion create the potential to wander off the straight and narrow? Is it possible for us to wander without even knowing it? We’ll look at these questions in this study.

Why don't Christians pray more? For many, prayer becomes a lost discipline when the Bible starts to feel boring, pointless, or frustrating. In this message, Pastor Lutzer illustrates how to combine two spiritual disciplines, prayer and meditation, by walking us through Psalm 23. Let's find out what it means to have a consistent, meaningful prayer life.
