Lust can feel like an unbeatable opponent. But it isn’t. This episode exposes the enemy’s predictable playbook—every move driven by the same tactics he's been using for 1000s of years. Many believers feel trapped by lust when real freedom is right there for the taking. Too often we rely on our own strength, instead of fighting a spiritual battle with powerful, spiritual weapons.

From the Chapel: In this passionate talk that Nate Danser gave on faith at a special Sunday evening service in the Pure Life Ministries Chapel, he emphasizes that a faith that withstands the storms of life is founded on the truth rather than our own blind whims. We need the kind of faith that does not listen to our feelings or what our past experience tells. Rather, we need a faith founded on the truth of God's Word.
The world keeps redefining truth; but that struggle isn’t new. Since the garden of Eden, humanity is continually tempted to question God’s Word and follow self instead. While this path promises fulfillment, it always brings coldness and chaos. Yet God’s truth will always remain steady, rooted, and unshakable, offering strength and clarity for all who cling to His Word.

Revelation 6 famously depicts the opening of the 7 seals. Each opening results in an increase of trouble and despair upon the earth. Specifically, the breaking of the 6th seal ushers in the ominous "Day of the Lord" - a day of great judgment on those in rebellion to Him, but also God's final call of repentance and surrender before mercy is cut off forever.
Ministry is often treated as a title, but it is meant to be an act of service. Continuing the theme of devotion, this episode features Josh Rowand, a man with extensive experience in ministry. Once serving for himself while hiding a life of sin, he now knows that ministry involves much more than image and being busy – it’s about helping others in humility, sincerity, and a faith that is actively lived out rather than merely spoken.

At the Altar of Sexual Idolatry (Book) By Steve Gallagher
Join us for a special bonus segment where Steve Gallagher teaches on Revelation 4 & 5. We’ll examine John’s vision of Heaven, where seeing the Lord on His throne offers profound comfort—proving God is fully in control before the coming persecution and devastating judgments.
We also explore how God is celebrated as Creator, affirming His authority and right to accomplish His will. Don't miss this essential teaching on divine sovereignty.
In Song of Solomon 1:4, the bride says to the bridegroom, "Draw me after you and let us run together." What a picture of sincere desire for the Lord! But let's be honest. For many regular church attendees in the United States, it's easy to SAY they love the Lord like that, but their lives outside of the church speak something different.
Devotion to the Lord is CRITICAL for victory over sin for today, and for the dark days ahead. Steve and Kathy Gallagher discuss this and more on this week's episode.

When His Secret Sin Breaks Your Heart (Book) By Kathy Gallagher
Who is the true focus of Revelation? In this bonus segment covering chapters 1-3, we explore the glorious vision of the risen Christ and His urgent message to His people. Steve Gallagher explains why the 7 letters from Jesus to the churches aren't just merely ancient history - all of them can be seen in the global church TODAY. Are we asleep like Sardis or enduring like Smyrna? These warnings are vital for believers in the last days. Listen now to hear what Jesus is saying to you.
Jesus said you can’t serve two masters, because you can only be truly devoted to one. The One all Christians should be devoted to is Christ.
But are we?
Why do so many Christian organizations exist to help Christians out of addictions? Perhaps it has to do with our devotion and who our hearts truly serve. In this week’s episode, Patrick Hudson delves into the seriousness of knowing what our hearts are truly fixed on and encourages us to pursue a life that is wholly devoted to God.

From the Chapel: Andrew was full of pride. He was enslaved to sexual sin yet saw himself as spiritually superior to those around him including those he was sinning against. But when he came to the Pure Life Ministries Residential Program, the Lord revealed the reality of his condition through the power of His Word and gave Andrew the beautiful gift of repentance and newness of life.
In the 40 years Pure Life Ministries has been counseling, we've never stopped supplying Biblical answers to those in sexual sin, to wives in their devastation, and to the sincere believer in their walk with the Lord.
In this episode, we answer some of our most common questions, as well as viewers’ concerns on their personal journey with God. Questions like:
• How can I know my husband has truly repented?
• Am I in a dry time because of hidden sin?
• How can I balance life's responsibilities and my relationship with God?
Joshua Broadhurst and Bernardo Arjona answer questions like these in this month's Q&A.

David prayed "Search me, O God, and know my heart." What a bold request! What would happen if you asked Him to search your heart? It may feel unsettling to think about—but it can change everything. Could there be hidden idols shaping your life without you realizing it?
On today’s podcast, we explore why this question matters and how it could transform your walk with Christ. Join us for an enlightening discussion you won’t want to miss.

The Ten Commandments: Reasonable Rules for Life (Book) By D.L. Moody
"The Revelation of Jesus Christ." From its very first verse, the final book of the Bible presents us with a profound question: Is this a message from Jesus about the future, or is it an unveiling of Jesus Himself?
Revelation is certainly filled with deep mysteries and complex symbolism, but it is not meant to be ignored. It is a book of awe and urgency that every believer is called to read, hear, and heed.
Discover the blessing promised to those who embrace this prophecy as we venture through the book of Revelation with Steve Gallagher in this series of interviews from our archives.
We live in a universe of cause and effect. As Galatians 6 warns, "Whatever a man sows, this he will also reap."
So what happens when someone continually sows to idols instead of God? This episode, we dig into the patterns of a self-serving life, expose the spiritual dangers, and reveal the inevitable consequences that follow.

From the Chapel: It is impossible to serve two masters, for we will love one and hate the other. We cannot hate the world in our flesh. We must see how beautiful Jesus is if we are to turn away from sin.

What role has "mercy" played in your strategy while battling sexual sin? For many believers, it only goes beyond God's gracious canceling of their sin. But mercy is so much more than that! It's a force to be reckoned with and has served as the linchpin for many Pure Life grads in their life-long freedom from addiction.
In this episode, Biblical counselor, Regan Bowman, opens our eyes to the transforming power of God's everlasting mercy.
