The Last Step on the Way Down – Part 2

Adultery is not only a sin against oneself and one's family, but also against the church, the nation, and Almighty God Himself. The late Adrian Rogers, founder of the "Love Worth Finding" ministry, stresses this point and warns, "Don't sacrifice the eternal on the altar of the immediate."

And never fail to flirt with your own wife."

Stepping Away from the Common Life – Part 2

Augustine once said, "Hearts are restless, O God, until we find our rest in Thee." Former Indianapolis Colts football coach Tony Dungy, author of Uncommon: Finding Your Path to Significance, explains that once a man chooses the uncommon path to be in a right relationship with God, he will stand up for godly values in the culture, cherish his wife, and treasure his children. He won't simply follow the crowd. As Dungy says, if you put the Lord first, everything else falls into place.
