    Jesus Gives Us His Word Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Mar 23, 2015
     | 5,298 views

    Make Jesus' passion your passion, his aims your aims, and pray for these things every day.

    THIS PAST TUESDAY, I took a day away from my desk, and Jan and I made a trip to Frisco, which is one of the places we like to go when we can. We ate at a favorite restaurant, relaxed and talked a bit, and then, as we almost always do, we went our separate ways – Jan to shop, and what I always ...read more

    Whatever you're going through, Jesus will get you through.

    “HOW LONG CAN YOU STAY under water without coming up for air?” That was the challenge my boyhood friend made to me. He boasted himself a full minute-and-a-half. “No contest!” I said. “Three minutes! Watch this.” I sucked in as much air as I could, and I plunged ...read more

    Jesus Gives Us Truth Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Mar 9, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,954 views

    The Holy Spirit tells us the truth. He tells us the truth about sin (the sin of unbelief), about righteousness (in Jesus), and about judgment.

    WHAT JESUS IS DOING here is: He is consoling his disciples. This is the last night before his death, and he tells them that he is gong away. And, of course, they are sad. But he reassures them. He tells them that his departure is for their good. “It is to your advantage that I go ...read more

    Jesus Gives Us Love Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Mar 6, 2015
     | 6,308 views

    How is God glorified? By the fruit we bear. And how do we bear fruit? By abiding in Jesus. He is the vine; we are the branches. Apart from him we can do nothing. No root, no fruit.

    THERE IS A STORY told about a young pastor, fresh out of seminary, who was to give his first sermon to his new congregation. He had graduated with honors, and everybody who knew him was sure that he was on a fast track to notoriety as a great preacher. His congregation watched as he entered the ...read more

    Jesus' answer to your fears is the presence of the triune God in your life -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

    I always like to go on record as saying, “I don’t believe in luck; I believe in providence.” And, as it turns out, by God’s providence, I have been very lucky in love! I am married to the woman of my dreams, the heart of my heart, and the love of my life. Jan is beautiful ...read more

    Jesus turns trouble into triumph.

    You know how it is when you hear a song for the first time? You know, a song that really grabs you? The first time I ever heard “Bridge Over Troubled Water,” I was in seminary. I wasn’t married, so I was living in the men’s dorm. I recall that it was a spring afternoon. ...read more

    Judged By Whose Righteousness?

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Feb 7, 2015
     | 2,359 views

    The claim to innocence can be rightly made only by the Savior, but, instead of seeking to escape judgment, He submitted Himself to wrath for my sake.

    If you're like me when you read Psalm 7, you may find your heart resonating with the opening verses: [1] O LORD my God, in you do I take refuge; save me from all my pursuers and deliver me, [2] lest like a lion they tear my soul apart, rending it in pieces, with none to deliver” ...read more

    God has good cause to be angry with us, but, because of his grace, he is not.

    Dr. Richard Cutter was my Greek professor at Baylor. One day, during class, he was lecturing along, and I was having a hard time keeping up. I glanced over at the notes of the student sitting next to me, hoping to get from him something that I had missed. That’s okay, isn’t it? I mean, ...read more

    A Claim, A Commandment, And A Promise

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015
     | 3,613 views

    Casual Christianity is worthless and brings neither glory to God nor satisfaction to the soul.

    I love fast food. I know I shouldn’t, but I do. Actually, I don’t really love it; I’m just comfortable with it. It’s quick. It’s easy. And it’s cheap. It’s not good for me, I know. The last time I ate a Big Mac, I checked the calorie count. If you eat just ...read more

    Can The Dead Hear?

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015
     | 5,701 views

    When the heart goes out of our faith, then the life goes out of our church. A vital congregation has its source in God.

    Nobody wants to be a part of a dead church. Not even Jesus! In the last book of the Bible, the book of Revelation, we find Jesus speaking to the church in a city called Sardis, and you know what he says? He says: “I know your works; you have a name [for] being alive, but [actually] you are ...read more

    Before The Harvest

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015

     | 5,522 views

    The wheat and the weeds, then, grow side by side – and will, until the harvest. Then, according to Jesus, there will be a separation.

    This is a simple tale, isn’t it? Or, so it seems. But there’s actually more to Jesus’ story than meets the eye. If you and I were to look down the page just a few verses, what we would find is Jesus’ explanation of this parable and what it means. As he lays it out, he ...read more

    Nothing Withheld

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015
     | 7,421 views

    In our relentless pursuit of what is expedient for us, we have run the other way from God, but in Christ God has run to us and for us, and he has provided the Lamb for the sacrifice that will reclaim us for God.

    Have you ever felt that God was asking you do the impossible, that what he was asking of you might be more than you could give? more than you could bear to give? Someone at work gets the promotion you were applying for – hoping for – and you know you are better qualified for the job. ...read more

    God Is Above Us Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015
     | 4,947 views

    There are aspects of God that we cannot know. God is above us -- far above us.

    This would be Moses’ second trip up the mountain to meet God. The first trip had ended in disaster. God had given him the tablets of the law, written in stone, and he was coming down the mountain to give them to the people. But he heard something unexpected. He heard what sounded like loud ...read more

    Bob's Legacy

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 9, 2015
     | 6,012 views

    Don't just be religious. Make your life a spiritual quest.

    Bob’s house was well built, by which I mean that his life was well-grounded. That’s what the Bible means – at least, most times – when it talks about building houses. We saw in Proverbs where it says, “By wisdom a house is built, and by understanding it is ...read more

    Jan's Triumph

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 9, 2015
     | 3,397 views

    God's love has made us His children, and it will make us like His Son.

    One thing I learned about Jan: She never felt the need to control others. I don’t mean by that that she had no boundaries or no expectations of us. She wanted us to be our best selves. But she didn’t see the need to coerce us. She didn’t need us to be a certain way for her to be ...read more
