Laugh It Off

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

Let’s have some fun. It’s overdue. Life’s been getting a little tight; it’s much too serious lately. With more deadlines, too many meetings (all of them too long!), not enough relaxation, more e-mails than I can handle, and the feeling that I gotta do more to keep all those weak marriages together, it’s enough to […]

How to Waste Your Time This Year

Posted on 9th January 201727th February 2018 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

With the dawning of a new year comes a deluge of resolutions, reminders, and exhortations. They all follow similar how-to themes—how to increase your efficiency, how to make every moment count, how to invest your time wisely and productively. Well, just for some tongue-in-cheek fun, I’d like to take the opposite tack. I’m going to […]

The Winsome Witness

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

I remember a fun ‘n’ games night around the supper table in our house. It was wild. First of all, one of the kids snickered during the prayer (which isn’t that unusual) and that tipped the first domino. Then a humorous incident from school was shared and the event (as well as how it was […]

Funny Truth

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

1 Kings 18:1-46 Maybe I’m weird, but there are times the Bible makes me laugh. I mean really laugh. The older I get and the more comfortable I feel in the Book, the more I find times when a smiling response is not only appropriate, it’s expected. Like that time when the main event at […]

Confusion

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

One of the toughest assignments in life is to communicate clearly what happened during a time when emotions were high. People who “fall in love” can hardly describe it. Those who went through a calamity or experienced a sudden loss often convey the information in a confused manner. The same is true for people who […]

The Philip Approach to Evangelism

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

You’ve been there. You know—that place where you should bring up the gospel, but, for whatever reason, you don’t. It’s that awkward moment where cotton peaks for harvest in your mouth, your brain puts a padlock on any memory verses, your breathing becomes irregular, and your excuse Rolodex is spinning to find a way out […]

The Cemetery Evangelist

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

When I was growing up in Houston, our family lived across the street from a man and woman who had married later in life. Ms. Brill met and married Mr. Roberts after her childbearing years had passed, so the two of them enjoyed a honeymoon that lasted well into retirement. He was a wonderful, doting […]

Giving and Living the Gospel

Posted on 9th January 201710th November 2017 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

One of the most effective evangelists I have ever known was a fellow who ran a service station on Arlington Avenue just outside Boston. He never spent a day in seminary or took one course in a Bible institute, but his Bible was well-worn and open near his cash register. He regularly dealt with souls […]

At the Threshold of an Open Door

Posted on 9th January 20178th June 2021 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

When I was growing up, I never knew cursing, drinking, divorce, or what people commonly call “the wild life.” And believe it or not, at the time I didn’t know the rest of the world was any different. Today many feel that growing up in such a protected environment, free from the dangers of the […]

Unambitious Leadership

Posted on 9th January 20178th April 2021 by Pastor Chuck Swindoll

Let’s take a look at the important balance between natural and spiritual leadership. A leader, obviously, must have some God-given natural qualities that cause others to respond to his or her influence. At the same time, the Christian leader must possess a marked degree of Spirit-directed, humble devotion to the Lord Jesus Christ . . […]
