    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 5, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,647 views

    A look at the unforgiveable sin. I think the distinction that I share about why criticism of Jesus is acceptable but of the Holy Spirit is not will be helpful in getting to the heart of what Jesus is trying to convey.

    WHAT IS THE "UNFORGIVEABLE SIN" EXACTLY? It seems to be seeing consistently clear evidence of the Spirit’s movement and attributing it to Satan. - Luke 12:10. - The passage in Luke presents the shortest version of this saying in the gospels. The versions in Matthew 12:22-32 and Mark ...read more

    BELIEVING ON THE INSIDE: If what’s on the inside is real, it will make it out. - Luke 12:8-9. - Many people have the idea that as long as I have “Jesus in my heart” then I’m ok. - And often implicit with that is the idea that my faith can be a private thing. It’s ...read more

    A look at the evangelism prayer that Jesus told us to pray (but we don't) as well as five of the reasons we need this prayer.

    THE SIMPLE, OBVIOUS, PATHETIC, MYSTIFYING TRUTH: We do not pray this prayer. - Matthew 9:38. - I do not have an explanation for this. - It’s not hard to do. It’s not hard to understand. It’s not controversial. Yet it’s rare that any of us pray this prayer at all. ...read more

    WHY TREAT EACH OTHER LIKE FAMILY? We are God’s eternal family. - 1 Timothy 5:1-2. - Because we are family! - Why is this so needed today? a. The prevalence of loneliness in our society. b. The joy of being “where everybody knows your name.” c. How hard life is and how much ...read more

  • Why Does The Government Do More Than The Church To Help The Poor? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 26, 2015
     | 5,358 views

    This passage on the care of widows opens up a larger question: what's the place the church should have in the care of the poor (versus the place the government should have)?

    THE POINT OF THE PASSAGE: Taking care of the needy widows was a big deal in the early church. - There was a different societal structure and a lack of social safety net back then. The church stepped in to help. - Unpack some of the passage. - The passage raises a more general question: why ...read more

     | 5,904 views

    An examination of what HAS changed, what HAS NOT changed, and what NEEDS to change in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to force same-sex marriage on the American people.

    I want to address three matters in this message with regard to the Supreme Court’s supremely satanic decision in Obergefell v. Hodges: What has changed, what hasn’t changed, and what must change. First of all, what has changed? For one thing, this nation. Obergefell v. Hodges is new ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,845 views

    A look at two of the sections in 1 Timothy that deal with the pastoral role.

    - First, let me say up front that this is not going to be an exciting sermon. I say that because the subject is one that is not particularly pressing. It is important, but most prefer sermons that focus on your personal walk with the Lord. This message deals with a corporate concern. - ...read more

  • When You Feel Like Your Efforts Aren't Doing Any Good Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 4, 2015
     | 6,064 views

    A look at both the discouragement that comes when you're doing what's right without reward and the danger that comes when you're doing what's wrong without consequences.

    WHY DO WHAT'S RIGHT? 1. With sin, sometimes we feel like we’re getting away with it. - Having no immediate, embarrassing, catastrophic punishment or consequence fall on us emboldens us to do it again. We begin to become callous. - There is a fear that first time that abates a little each time ...read more

  • Handling The Drive To Be Known Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 20, 2015

    THE WHOLE COUNTRYSIDE: John had a lot of “known” yet he was not controlled by it. - Mark 1:5. - Because the passages about John the Baptist are fairly familiar, it’s easy to run past the details. One essential detail for our discussion this morning is in Mark 1:5 – the ...read more

    It's difficult to see pride in yourself. This message identifies seven areas where our pride often rears its ugly head.

    - Few people will admit to being proud. It’s difficult thing to see in yourself. - In our passage for this morning (James 4:6), it tells us that God opposes the proud.
