Teach Them to Work Unto the Lord, Part 2

Chip explains how to teach children to work "unto the Lord." He challenges parents: Don't rob kids of growth. Teach responsibility, chores, timeliness, and finishing jobs. Transferable Concept #2: Teach them to WORK unto the Lord. A theology of work: * Work is a CALLING, not a job * All work is SACRED. -1 Cr. 10:31 * Our work is to flow from God’s unique design and PURPOSE for our lives. -Ep. 2:10, 1 Cr. 15:10 * Old Testament roots: Gen. 2:15 * Biblical profiles: Adam, Paul * New Testament command: Col. 3:23 How to help them discover God's calling for their lives. Ask… 1. What's your unique S.H.A.P.E.? * Spiritual gifts * Heart * Aptitude * Personality * Experience 2. Encourage them to get honest, WISE COUNSEL about who you are, where you fit, and how to move forward. -Pr. 24:6 3. Help them be willing to move out of their COMFORT ZONE to fulfill their divine purpose. -Hb. 11:6 Life message: You were CREATED for a special work!

A Resource to Ask For, Part 2

James, the leader in Jerusalem, faced a world turned upside down. His message offers God's answer and resource for anyone facing crisis today. The principle = “Don’t ask why, ask what.” Three “what” questions survivors ask: 1. What can I control when my world falls apart? 2. What must I do to make it through today? 3. What hope do I have for tomorrow? The answer = God’s sovereignty + goodness = He will take my worst circumstances and use them for my best if I will trust Him and not bail out of His spiritual maturity process. I. The problem: sometimes we get “stuck” in our pain. II. The solution: God promises help for those who are “stuck.” -Jas. 1:5-8 * God’s offer = supernatural WISDOM * Our responsibility = to ASK * God’s attitude when we come = OPEN & GENEROUS III. The one condition: We receive God’s wisdom only when we “ask in faith, without any doubting.” Conclusion: Four things you must do to get unstuck 1. Admit you’re stuck 2. Admit you can’t do it on your own 3. Ask God for supernatural wisdom 4. Be willing to do whatever God’s wisdom demands of you Broadcast Resource * Series Resources [https://livingontheedge.org/topics/personal-growth/the-art-of-survival/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] * Message Notes [https://livingontheedge.org/broadcasts/message-notes/page/8/?series=2474%253Fsource%253DWEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] Year End Match * Double Your Gift Today [https://livingontheedge.org/special/yem2025/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=shownotes&segment=podcast-listener&utm_campaign=yem_120125&utm_content=aos+podcast&source=25YEMPOD&referral=PODCAST] * Ministry Report [https://livingontheedge.org/about/2025-annual-ministry-report/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=shownotes&segment=podcast-listener&utm_campaign=yem_120125&utm_content=aos+podcast&source=25YEMPOD&referral=PODCAST] Additional Resources * Christmas Gifts [https://livingontheedge.org/format/great-gifts/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=shownotes&segment=podcast-listener&utm_campaign=great-gifts-xmas&utm_content=aos+podcast&source=25YEMPOD&referral=PODCAST] Connect * 888-333-6003 [tel:8883336003] * Website [https://livingontheedge.org/] * Chip Ingram App [https://livingontheedge.org/chip-ingram-app] * Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/livingontheedgewithchipingram] * Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/LOTEcommunity] * Twitter [https://twitter.com/lotecommunity] Partner With Us * Donate Online [https://livingontheedge.org/donate/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] * 888-333-6003 [tel:8883336003]

Rage: Understanding the Monster Within, Part 1

What can turn a normal rational person into an out of control monster - destroying relationships, abusing children, spewing threats, and alienating lifelong friends? Join Chip as he reveals the source of that devastating power, and how to keep it under control. Introduction: James 1:19-20 A look at anger from God’s perspective: * Definition: Anger is neither good nor bad; it is a “charged,” morally neutral, emotional response of protective preservation. * Positively – It can be a healthy emotion that motivates us to correct attitudes, behaviors, or injustices that we perceive to be wrong. -Eph 4:26-27 * Negatively – It can be an unhealthy and destructive emotional response to protect us from (real or perceived) hurt, frustration, or personal attack. -Pro. 19:19; 22:24; 29:22 Anger wears many masks: We EXPRESS our ANGER in such a wide variety of ways that many people assume anger is not an issue in their life. * Spewers: Anger is necessary – They’re exploding or calculating time bombs * Stuffers: Anger is wrong – They deny and avoid OR pretend and ignore * Leakers: Showing anger is wrong – They’re passive-aggressive Broadcast Resource * Overcoming Emotions that Destroy Resources [https://livingontheedge.org/topics/personal-growth/personal-growth-overcoming-emotions-that-destroy/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] * Message Notes [https://livingontheedge.org/broadcasts/message-notes/page/6/?series=1596%253Fsource%253DWEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] Additional Resource Mentions * Overcoming Emotions that Destroy Small Group Offer [https://livingontheedge.org/product/oe-bundle-dvd/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] Connect * 888-333-6003 [tel:8883336003] * Website [https://livingontheedge.org/] * Chip Ingram App [https://livingontheedge.org/chip-ingram-app] * Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/livingontheedgewithchipingram] * Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/LOTEcommunity] * Twitter [https://twitter.com/lotecommunity] Partner With Us * Donate Online [https://livingontheedge.org/donate/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] * 888-333-6003 [tel:8883336003]

Spiritual Warfare 301: How to Do Battle with the Enemy and Win, Part 1

Chip relates the most fearful encounter with demons he ever faced and how you can prepare yourself to do battle with the Enemy. Four facts you need to know 1. God has objectively defeated Satan. He has delivered us from sin’s penalty and power. In the interim, we are involved in guerilla warfare with demonic forces. 2. As believers, we have been transferred from the kingdom of darkness to the Kingdom of light with all the rights, privileges, and position a child of God entails. 3. The spiritual battle involves a responsibility to “put on” the spiritual protection God has provided. We can resist the enemy’s attempts to deceive, accuse, and cast doubt when we stand firm. 4. The great majority of spiritual warfare need never go beyond the regular practice of living out our position in Christ by faith. Our practice of the spiritual armor protects us from Satan’s attempts and minimizes any impact by the enemy. There are times however, when we must move beyond “standing firm” and ENGAGE the enemy in actual combat * When taking significant steps of faith for spiritual growth * When invading enemy territory * When exposing him for who he really is * When we repent and make a “clean break” with the world, a long-held sin pattern, or an unholy relationship * When God is preparing us for a “great work” for His glory How to engage the enemy and win: 1. Taking up the shield of FAITH 2. Take the helmet of SALVATION 3. Take the sword of the SPIRIT Summary: How to engage the enemy in spiritual warfare 1. Prerequisite is a HEALTHY spiritual life 2. Understand your POSITION in Christ 3. DISCERN when demonic influence may be the cause 4. Claim God’s promises OUT LOUD 5. Take our authority and position in Christ to COMMAND demonic forces to cease their activity and depart Broadcast Resource * The Invisible War Resources [https://livingontheedge.org/topics/crisis/crisis-invisible-war/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] * Message Notes [https://livingontheedge.org/broadcasts/message-notes/page/9/?series=1589%253Fsource%253DWEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] Additional Resource Mentions * The Invisible War Small Group Offer [https://livingontheedge.org/product/iw-bundle-dvd/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] Connect * 888-333-6003 [tel:8883336003] * Website [https://livingontheedge.org/] * Chip Ingram App [https://livingontheedge.org/chip-ingram-app] * Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/livingontheedgewithchipingram] * Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/LOTEcommunity] * Twitter [https://twitter.com/lotecommunity] Partner With Us * Donate Online [https://livingontheedge.org/donate/?source=WEBPODDON&referral=PODCAST] * 888-333-6003 [tel:8883336003]
