Mohler began by describing the current landscape of the American church—we need a recovery of understanding the Scriptures in their totality. He expounded Jesus’ dialogue with the Pharisees in John 5 with specific application for us. The Pharisees’ rejection of Jesus was a refusal to recognize God’s witness of him. The takeaway for us is important: one can study the Scriptures extensively and not get it.

Paul Washer shares on the gospel message of Christ taking on the wrath of God for the lost world. This is a clear message of the Gospel and its focus and elevation of Christ alone. Amidst the shallow presentations of the gospel this message elevates the true Gospel.

Glenn Sheppard preaches a powerful message on the proper way to use money as a Christian. He gives a strong exhortation about the abuse of seeking lustfully money for personal gain amongst the Churches. He clearly shows how many leaders are seeking comfort and gain in the ministry. There needs to be a change in North America the way we use money for the glory of God.

Carter Conlon preached this powerful message in the year 2003 at Times Square Church. No matter your struggle - God will NOT fail you as you trust Him in everything. God will always be faithful the scripture says. God has made covenant with the Church as he did with Israel and His promises are sure. He is a sure rock and fortress in our times of trouble. May God bring us to total dependence on Christ and His work.

David Wilkerson contends for purity in the midst of a wicked, perverse age where the world is encroaching the Church of the living God. There is a need to maintain purity in these days so that the Lamb of God will be glorified in the lives of Christians and the Gospel would have a testimony in this wicked age.

Art Katz speaks prophetically using the holocaust and the sufferings of Job applying it to the Church and the need of repentance. If Divine reality is to come into the church in its present unreal condition, then we need to expect devastations in our midst of the deepest and challenging kind. The text is from the suffering of Job.

David Platt shares passionately the character of God, His powerful and sovereignty. He speakings on the modern church and our trust in the flesh and our sufficiency and how God does not need these things. God has a plan and purpose may we enter into this fully and live by His power and great grace!

Jim Cymbala shares how everything in the world, life and Christian life is for the glory of God. This is an important foundational message for Christian life and many of us seem to drift from this sure place and goal. He also shares how our constant victory in Christ must be soley by His grace and for His glory.

'The question is not,' Oswald J. Smith contends, 'Do I have the Holy Spirit?' but, 'Am I filled with the Holy Spirit?' Smith shows how this commandment to be filled with the Spirit is essential to have power over sin and power for service. HOW may I be filled? Five conditions are laid out to consider: confession, renunciation, surrender, obedience and faith. Mr. Smith closes with his own personal testimony of how God broke him in ministry and humbled him sorely so that he could be used in the power of the Spirit and not in the energy of the flesh.

Sacrifice and Sovereignty is the balance of Chrstian Life. Painful self-denial and submitting our wills to God ensure we have walked in the perfect will of God. Amongst all the problems and doubts we can trust a loving Heavenly Father that He is desiring and leads us into His perfect will for our life's. Into a life full of good works that glorifies the death of Christ for our sins giving us eternal life.
