I Struggle with Lust

About the Sermon

Lust is one of the most quietly destructive struggles in the church—and in our culture. In this message from Ben Davis Christian Church, you'll discover how Jesus addresses lust not with shame, but with clarity and compassion. Whether you're single or married, male or female, lust distorts the way we see people, damages relationships, rewires our brains, and creates distance between us and God. But there’s hope: Jesus invites you to something greater. Learn how to fight lust with radical purity, total surrender, and lasting freedom. If you’re tired of secret struggles and fake fixes, this message is for you.

The Gratitude Gap

In this one-off message, Pastor Ryan walks through Luke 17 and the story of the ten lepers—a story that exposes how easy it is to receive God’s blessing without responding to the One who gave it. It’s a message about slowing down, remembering, and learning to see God’s goodness in the middle of real-life chaos.

Give

This week’s message wraps up our Heart for the House series with the topic most of us feel the tension around: giving. But not giving out of guilt or pressure—giving that flows from grace, trust, and ownership.
