Overloaded? Maxed out? Our culture encourages us to live as if we have no limits. So we fill up our schedules and empty our bank accounts. We do as much as we can, spend as much as we can and acquire as much as we can. In this six-part series, Andy Stanley explains that the secret to getting more out of life is not doing more, but doing less. We must learn to create margin to live the life God intended for us. There's something in all of us that wants to walk as close to the line as possible. By setting moral margins, we protect ourselves from experiencing the consequences of sin. Because sexual sin has the greatest consequences, we should always ask ourselves, "Am I fleeing from or flirting with the line?"

The Best Question Ever, Part 2: Musical Chairs
Author: Andy Stanley Mon, Nov 03, 2008
Experience is the harshest of teachers. We have all made bad decisions in the past for one of three reasons: We were naïve (we lacked experience and judgment); we were fools (we knew what was right but chose to do wrong); or we were mockers (we made fun of people who did right).

Author: Andy Stanley Mon, Sep 22, 2008

Taking Care of Business, Part 4: Going Public
Author: Andy Stanley Mon, Sep 08, 2008
Christianity is not supposed to be personal and private; we are to be lights in the darkness. Our light shines best when our character is developed to reflect God. People will see that our faith is about a relationship, not a religion.

Taking Care of Business, Part 2: Current Economic Indicators
Author: Andy Stanley Mon, Aug 11, 2008
How do we deal with unethical practices at work? Quests for security, recognition, and progress tempt us to operate under different ethical standards at work than in our personal lives. This segregated living causes the loss of three things over time: moral authority, self-respect, and the opportunity to experience what God wants to accomplish through us.

LO$T, Part 4: Finding Shelter
Author: Andy Stanley Mon, Jun 30, 2008
Discontentment is robbing our generation. Daily we are bombarded with messages that cause us to be dissatisfied with our current circumstances. We walk around with the gnawing sense that I need to upgrade everything, and the thing is that more money doesn't quench this hunger; it only causes it to grow. So what are we to do? Andy Stanley examines 1 Timothy 6 to uncover the answer to our predicament.

LO$T, Part 3: Flashback
Author: Andy Stanley Mon, Jun 16, 2008
Why has God given you so much? Why has God made you rich? If these questions elicit a laugh, don't move past them too fast. If you stop to think about it, most of us have way more than we need. By all accounts you have considerably more than most people in the world can lay claim to. So why you? Why do you have so much? Andy Stanley explores a parable of Jesus to see why God distributes wealth as He does and its implications for what God has given you.
