  • Christmas Interruptions: Joseph Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,754 views

    Christmas interrupts the unraveling of your life. Your fears, like Joseph’s, are unfounded, and for the same reason: The child in Mary’s womb!

    You’ve got to see this first Christmas from Joseph’s point of view. I mean, his heart was full of anticipation over his recent engagement to Mary. His head was no doubt filled with images of what his life was going to be like, and he saw nothing but blue skies and smooth seas ahead. ...read more

  • Christmas News: The Angels Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
     | 2,864 views

    We need to be seized once more by heavenly realities – just as Zechariah was. We need to experience something like a shock to our smug certainties that whittle God down to a manageable size and leave us underwhelmed by the mysteries of eternity.

    Angels have fallen on hard times these days. Hardly anyone thinks about them anymore…except at Christmas, of course. But even at that, people don’t much believe in them. Although…I knew a woman – a member of this church at one time: She told me that she had actually seen an ...read more

  • The Journey Of Faith Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
     | 8,815 views

    It is through Jesus that God speaks to you and me – no matter how dark the times, no matter how difficult the way, no matter how unfaithful people around us may be. God speaks to us through Jesus, and he calls us to himself just as he did Ruth.

    The book of Ruth is the story of an extended family living in a dangerous place during turbulent times. The story is told in four scenes, with a chapter devoted to each scene. Chapter 1 is about a journey, chapter 2 a day in the field, chapter 3 a night to remember, and chapter 4 a morning that ...read more

  • Fields Of Grace Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
     | 7,267 views

    God takes us on – just as Boaz took on Ruth – and he makes promises to us…and gracious provision. And he “works all things together for good to those who love him, who are called according to his purpose” (Rom. 8:29).

    You’ve heard the one, I ‘m sure, about the lonely frog who goes to see a fortune-teller. He’s told not to worry. She says, “You’re going to meet a beautiful young girl, and she will want to know everything about you.” “That’s great!” the ...read more

  • Wings Of Mercy Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
     | 6,579 views

    God takes us, sinners one and all – spiritual waifs, to be honest – and he “marries” himself to us. He redeems us from the estrangement sin has caused in our lives. He takes us under his wings; he covers us with his cloak. And we are restored.

    One of the characters in Kent Haruf’s novel Plainsong is Victoria, a seventeen-year-old girl who is four months pregnant. When her boyfriend finds out about her condition, he breaks up with her. And when her mother finds out, she kicks her out of the house and says to her, “You got ...read more

  • My Redeemer Lives! Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 8, 2014
     | 7,023 views

    God’s plan of redemption has been in process for centuries on end, but what it comes down to is this: Jesus is our greater Boaz. He is the faithful Redeemer, who has paid the price to deliver us and to recover us for an eternity of joy.

    Over the last few weeks, we have turned our attention the book of Ruth in the Old Testament, and now, today, we come to our final study of this remarkable account. As we have said, the story of Ruth is told in four episodes with a chapter given to each one of them. The first chapter is the story ...read more

  • Christmas Grace: The Shepherds Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 15, 2014
     | 3,564 views

    This Child, this Christ, would be prophet, priest, and king -- showing God's way, ruling His people with compassion, and offering Himself as the sacrifice for their sins.

    8 In that region there were shepherds living in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. 9 Then the angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for, see – I am ...read more

  • Savior And Lord

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 19, 2014
     | 1,883 views

    By his sacrifice of himself, Jesus has proven his love for us. And because of that we worship him. We acknowledge him as Savior and Lord not because we have to but because we want to!

    Do you remember the story of the emperor’s clothes? If I am recalling it right, someone persuaded the emperor to buy a suit of clothes that only people with the most exquisite taste in fashion could see. Of course, the emperor could not see the clothes, nor could anyone else – because ...read more

  • Our Inheritance

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 27, 2014
     | 4,937 views

    A funeral sermon in which we learn about the person something of her relationship to herself, to others, and to God.

    Jutta was one of those people that make a preacher’s job easier – or really, the job of anyone who speaks in public. I came to know Jutta at the vespers service held each Thursday evening at the Manor. She always sat close to the front – on the second row, in fact – ...read more

  • Christmas Journeys: The Magi Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Dec 27, 2014
     | 4,302 views

    We ought to take our cue – not from Herod, who rejected God’s gift of Jesus – but from the wise men, who received it with glad and thankful hearts.

    This is the last of our series on the theme of Faces at the Manger. We started with Joseph, remember, and we continued with the angels, the shepherds, and Mary, the mother of our Lord. And now we conclude with the wise men, or the magi, as they are sometimes called. Technically, they did not ...read more

  • Jan's Triumph

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 9, 2015
     | 3,489 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

  • Bob's Legacy

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 9, 2015
     | 6,209 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

  • God Leads With Heart

    The Bible tells us all we need to know about love.

    GOD LEADS WITH HEART John 3:16 (KJV) For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. Today is February 14, Saint Valentine’s Day, of course. What do you know about Saint Valentine, or, to use his Latin ...read more

     | 6,394 views

    Only Christ can fill our inner emptiness.

    LOST AT THE BOTTOM OF THE WELL John 4:4-14 (NIV) 4 Now he had to go through Samaria. 5 So he came to a town in Samaria called Sychar, near the plot of ground Jacob had given to his son Joseph. 6 Jacob’s well was there, and Jesus, tired as he was from the journey, sat down by the well. It was ...read more

  • Grace: The Wind Beneath Your Wings

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Feb 21, 2008
     | 3,522 views

    While Adam got us into the mess we’re in, Christ will get us out of it.

    GRACE: THE WIND BENEATH YOUR WINGS Romans 5:12-19 (The Message) 12/ You know the story of how Adam landed us in the dilemma we’re in -- first sin, then death, and no one exempt from either sin or death. 13/ That sin disturbed relations with God in everything and everyone, but the extent of the ...read more
