The Bible shows we're in a conflict, and Satan wants you to fail. Chip reveals how to be victorious over the Evil One by using the supernatural weapons God provides to protect you and your loved ones. Fight back!

Introduction: The South Pacific after WWII was won

• The victory had been won, but battles continued and lives were lost; the bullets were real.
• The same is true spiritually:

1. Satan was defeated at the Cross.
2. Sin’s penalty was paid for all people for all time.
3. Sin’s power was broken.
4. Yet, Satan and his host of fallen angels engage in guerilla warfare to discourage, deceive, divide, and destroy God’s people and God’s program.
5. Believers are commanded to equip and prepare themselves in the strength of the Lord and in His mighty power to stand firm against the enemy’s schemes, repel his multi-faceted attacks, and engage and defeat him in specific battles.

Four keys to spiritual victory

1. We must become AWARE of the Invisible War.
2. We must learn to APPROPRIATE God’s protection for daily living.
3. We must learn to ENGAGE the enemy with supernatural weapons.
4. We must utilize God’s means of deliverance when spiritually attacked.

How can you prepare yourself for satanic attack?

1. Having girded your loins with TRUTH
2. Having put on the breastplate of RIGHTEOUSNESS
3. Having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of PEACE

Application

1. Know and understand the content of the Gospel. -1 Cor. 15:1–5; Eph. 2:1–9
2. Know the basis for your eternal security and the assurance of your salvation. Security – Rom. 8:38–39; Eph. 1:13–14. Assurance – 1 Jn. 5:11-13
3. Faith is based on facts, not feelings.
4. Sharing your faith is one of the most powerful faith-builders available, often “the best defense is a good offense.”

Can a Christian be possessed? Can Satan read your mind or control your thoughts? Chip shares that victory over Satan requires knowing who he is, how he works, and what weapons he uses against you.

• GENERAL Command (Eph. 6:10) “Allow yourself to be continually strengthened by the power already made available to you in your new position and relationship with Christ.” It is the power that raised Christ from the dead and now dwells in you.
• SPECIFIC Command (Eph. 6:11) How? By continually and repeatedly putting on, at specific points in time, the spiritual protection God has provided for you... for the express purpose of holding on to your position in Christ as you are bombarded by Satanic strategies designed to destroy you and/or render you ineffective in Kingdom pursuits.
• The REASON for Commands (Eph. 6:12) It’s because our real struggle is not against physical/material adversaries, but against a hierarchy of demonic forces doing battle in the spiritual realm.

Five basic truths about spiritual warfare:

1. There is an INVISIBLE world that is just as real as the visible world.
2. We are involved in an invisible WAR, a cosmic conflict that has eternal implications.
3. Our foe is FORMIDABLE and his goal is to destroy us and discredit the cause of Christ.
4. We must RESPECT our foe, but not FEAR him – become acutely aware of his “methods,” but not be preoccupied by them.
5. As believers in Christ, we do not fight “for” victory, we fight “FROM” victory. In Christ’s power we are invincible!

Summary:

1. Satan is a DEFEATED foe. -Jn 12:31
2. Jesus DESTROYED the work of the devil. -Col 2:14-15
3. We are VICTORS in Christ. -1 Cor 15:55-58
4. We have the POWER and resources to resist Satan and demonic attacks. -1 Jn 4:4
5. We must LEARN how to put on the “full armor of God” to experience in daily living the victory we already possess. -Eph 6:13-17

Chip Ingram continues his conversation with apologist Sean McDowell, offering guidance for parents whose child is struggling with their gender identity or sexuality. They explain how to reject parental guilt, adopt a long-term perspective, and initiate dialogue rooted in both love and biblical truth.

Key Topics:

• Your Initial Response: How to lead with love and preserve the relationship.
• Giving Yourself Grace: Avoiding the trap of self-blame and the "perfect parent" myth.
• Moving Forward: The power of asking questions and listening to understand.

• A Proactive Culture: Creating a safe home for conversations about faith and sexuality.
• Defending God's Design: Answering the "outdated Bible" objection with Scripture and reason.

• Lead with Unconditional Love: Affirm your relationship first to establish a foundation of safety and trust.
• Listen More, Lecture Less: Ask thoughtful questions to understand their heart and experience, not just to correct them.
• Hold Firm with Grace: Maintain your biblical convictions with compassion, establishing loving boundaries without compromising truth.
• Build a Culture of Conversation: Intentionally create a home where it’s safe to discuss any topic before it becomes a crisis.
• Know the "Why": Be ready to explain the goodness and purpose behind God's design, not just the rules.
• Use Their Interests as a Bridge: Use your child’s passions (movies, hobbies, etc.) as a natural starting point for deeper conversations.

What are the top two discipline issues you’re facing with your kids right now? Think about it - have you got ‘em? If you want to learn how to develop a game plan to address those specific issues, join us for this program!

Case Study #1 – Reuben Hill (Minnesota Report)

• Summary: The balanced authoritative parent, who gives high support (love) and high control (discipline), typically produces children with high self-esteem, good coping skills, and a positive relationship with parents.

Case Study #2 – Hebrews 12 - Christians A.D. 66-70

• Summary: Discipline is teaching obedience to God and His Word through consistent consequences (actions) and clear instructions (words) in an atmosphere of love.

Five characteristics of discipline:

1. The necessity of discipline = To deter DESTRUCTION. -Heb. 12:4
2. The means of discipline = The ACTIONS and WORDS. -Heb. 12:5
3. The motive in discipline = To express LOVE. -Heb. 12:6-9
4. The goal of discipline = To teach OBEDIENCE or SUBMISSION. -Heb. 12:9
5. The result of discipline = Short term PAIN and long term GAIN. -Heb. 12:10,11

Two key biblical concepts

1) Actions: Consistent consequences

Seven steps to discipline:

1. Clear WARNING.
2. Establish responsibility.
3. Avoid EMBARASSMENT.
4. Communicate grief.
5. Flick the WRIST.
6. Sincere repentance.
7. Unconditional LOVE.

2) Words: Clear instructions

Four ways to use words to bring about correction:

1. Say “no” FIRMLY.
2. CLEAR WARNING of consequences.
3. Use CONTRACTS.
4. Use CONSEQUENCES
