The Struggle: Fighting The Battle Within

3 Weeks

Big Idea of the Series

This three-week series analyzes the heavily debated Romans 7. Christians have struggled to interpret and apply these twenty-five verses, and the way we understand these verses can impact our thoughts on sin, law, grace, and sanctification. Walking through Paul’s thoughts in each verse, we can see that Christians are married to Christ and not the law, and the law is good but is weak to save and sanctify us. Ultimately, through the work of Christ, we can have hope in our struggle and be transformed to look more like him.

Using This Series Guide

What is the Series Guide?

The Series Guide is a comprehensive resource designed to help you lead your congregation through this sermon series. It includes weekly sermon outlines, discussion questions, and key theological insights to support your teaching preparation.

Each guide has been thoughtfully crafted to provide you with both depth and flexibility as you prepare your messages.

This series includes 3 weeks of content.

What is the Series Guide Not?

The Series Guide is not a word-for-word sermon script. It's not meant to replace your own study and preparation, but rather to complement it with additional resources and structure.

It also doesn't include all media assets - those are available in the downloads section.

How Do I Use this Series Guide?

We recommend starting with the series overview to understand the big picture themes. Then, for each week, review the scripture passages, main points, and illustrations provided.

Use the discussion questions for small groups or to spark your own thinking. Feel free to adapt any content to fit your congregation's specific needs and context.
