Study the writings of godly men throughout the ages, and one thing stands out: In their eyes, He was incomparable, unsearchable and eternal. He wasn’t just a little better than the false gods, there was no comparison. He wasn’t just barely deserving of His people’s worship, He was worthy of total and utter devotion. In Part 2 of our Unveiling Yahweh episode, the PLM speaking team sits down to discuss Steve Gallagher's sermon on the greatness of God and will talk about why having a vision of God's greatness is so important for every professing believer.

• Obtain a Greater Sight of Yahweh (Sermon) By Steve Gallagher

From the Chapel: When Ben came into the Residential Program, he was angry at God and unwilling to take responsibility for his sin. But when he saw how good God had been to him despite his rebellion, his heart was broken and he came into true repentance.

About a year ago, we embarked on a new preaching series called "Unveiling Yahweh." Why? Because Scripture tells us that without a sight of God, we are spiritually foolish, shortsighted, proud, and hard-hearted. But when the eyes of our hearts are opened, His glory convicts us, breaks our pride and selfishness, leads us to repentance and then fills us with hope, courage, purity and love.

In this 2-part episode, the speaking team of Pure Life Ministries will discuss two sermons that are part of this series, in hopes that your eyes will open to see the transforming glory of God.

• What Does it Mean to Know God (Sermon) By Nate Danser

At an evangelistic meeting, Gladys Aylward gave God a complete surrender of body and soul. Soon, the call came: go to China. It seemed impossible, but she was convinced if He had called her, He would lead and provide. Her story is both amazing and ordinary—her daring feats of bravery in the midst of the Japanese–Chinese war and her perilous trek leading a hundred children to freedom. Yet it also shines with simple acts of love and faith, flowing from her conviction that everyone needs to know the love of God in Jesus Christ. Her story is extraordinary, yet accessible to all. And it’s yet another reason why we think you should read Christian biographies.

Timeless Truths: Restoring a marriage from the ruin of sexual sin isn't easy. The husband needs to bear his wife as she fights through the pain, fear and anger. The wife ought to bear her husband as he battles his way out of lust. But if they'll persist in walking in love, the Lord will do a miracle in them.

Every true believer struggling with sin will eventually realize just how deeply they need inward transformation. But how is that transformation actually going to take place? Sheer willpower? Gaining doctrinal knowledge? Talking to others? In this "Ask the Counselor" episode, we'll look at a vital part of the transformation process: renewing the mind.

• Key Lessons on the Road to Freedom (Podcast Series) By Pure Life Ministries

Every so often, people contact our ministry in deep despair, asking, “Have I committed the unpardonable sin?” In this "Ask the Counselor" episode, we’ll turn to Scripture to see what the unpardonable sin actually is, why those trapped in grievous sin often fear they’ve committed it, and—most importantly—what hope God gives to those who feel beyond forgiveness.

How many times have you promised yourself, “I will never do that again!” but then fell into sin again? The longer that cycle continues, you may start believing that freedom isn't even possible. That’s what Steve Gallagher used to think, until he learned how to win the battle against temptation. In this episode, we continue to share with you the truths found in our "20 Truths" YouTube series. Today’s topic? “Temptation is a Winnable Battle.”
