The journey to fulfill God''s plan in your life is not always a smooth and easy road. In order to be like Christ, we actually have to follow in His footsteps. That includes challenges, trials, tribulations, and suffering. That is the part most Christians want to avoid, but it is what makes us closest to being like Him. The Apostle Paul wrote to the church in Philippi, "That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, being made conformable unto his death;" Philippians 3:10 The Second Mile: Following God''s Path to Greatness helps us examine the narrow path that we must walk in order to bring glory to God and be a powerful witness for Christ to the world around us. "And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him twain." Matthew 5:41 KJV

From the Garden of Eden to this very moment, idolatry has plagued the journey of mankind. It is an unfortunate choice we as humans continue to make over and over again in an attempt to be in control of all aspects of our existence. And in doing so, we have attempted to replace the one true God. We have gone as far as denying the reality of our Creator and instead, we have created gods of our own design that fulfill the wants and desires of our imagination. We Have No King But Caesar: Choosing Christ Over A Counterfeit Kingdom challenges those self-generated acts of idol worship and redirects us to the genuine worship of the true King of Kings and Lord of Lords, our Savior, Jesus Christ.

We live in an era of history when the saturation of wicked sensuality is at an all time high. This evil has infiltrated every corner of our society. It has become, in my opinion, the dominant preoccupation of our culture, a secretive moral downfall of many Christians, and a neglected biblical teaching of the church. Fleeing Potiphar''s House: Spiritual Victory over Sexual Sin looks to the only source for help to triumph over this deadly snare of the enemy; the Word of God and the power of Christ. We will examine David''s failure and Joseph''s success over this adversary.
