  • Why Do We Ask Less From God Than He’s Willing To Give?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 12, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,379 views

    This message looks at the healing of the paralytic and asks why we settle for less than God's best when we ask from God. It then looks at four examples of how we do similar things today.

    - We want to begin with something that stands out early in the story: the fact that they obviously come for physical healing, but Jesus responds to the man by saying that his sins are forgiven. - Why would Jesus do that? Was He unaware of what they’d come for? (Obviously not.) Was He ...read more

     | 6,313 views

    Jesus' healing of the paralytic is a lesser miracle performed by Jesus in order for Jesus to provide an even greater miracle: Forgiveness.

  • A Ribbon Of Blue

     | 8,205 views

    In this message I am going to talk about a woman who touched Jesus where the ribbon of blue hung from His garment, the symbolism behind it, and the powerful message of grace it conveys.

    A Ribbon of Blue Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree... Colors from time immemorial have conveyed messages. Red is danger, yellow is caution, green is go. For the Jews, purple is royalty and blue symbolizes keeping the ...read more

  • The Hidden Work That Brings God’s Power

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 18, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,203 views

    This encounter makes no sense (why would Matthew just get up and follow this man) unless you know the behind-the-scenes encounters that happened prior. This message unpacks the need for that hidden work in our lives to see God moves powerfully.

    WHY DOES MATTHEW FOLLOW A STRANGER? The public commitment was preceded by behind-the-scenes work. - Matthew 9:9. - Matthew 4:18-22; John 1:35-42. - Matthew doesn't follow a stranger. He had a previous relationship with Jesus. This public moment was preceded by behind-the-scenes things. - The ...read more

  • Why Did The "Sinners" Love Hanging Out With Jesus?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 30, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,023 views

    It's a fact worth pondering: the tax collectors and sinners LIKED being with Jesus. That's not usually how the lost feel around us. What did Jesus have that we don't?

    AN IMPORTANT FACT: The tax collectors and “sinners” liked hanging out with Jesus. - Matthew 9:10. - It’s easy to rush past verse 10 and get to the rest of this story, but it’s worth settling for a moment here and thinking about its implications. The tax collectors and ...read more

  • How Focusing On Sacrifice Can Twist Our Faith Into Something Ugly

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 6, 2014
     | 2,357 views

    Why focusing on sacrifice causes trouble and how focusing on compassion (as Jesus instructs us to) brings better results.

    WHAT'S WRONG WITH SACRIFICE? Sacrifice is not intrinsically bad, but the problem is when we say that more sacrifice equals a better Christian. - Matthew 9:13. - There is a lot that is good to sacrifice. Like many other things, though, making it the ultimate goal of our Christian life puts us in ...read more

  • Did Jesus Come To Repair The Old Way?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 13, 2014
     | 5,858 views

    Jesus' comment on wineskins is confusing to many. What does it mean and how does it tie into His comments right before that on fasting?

    DID JESUS COME TO REPAIR THE OLD WAY? There are some of the same elements, but we need to know that this is a new thing. - Matthew 9:14, 16-17. - There will still be fasting – Jesus doesn’t dismiss it. Instead, He says it’ll happen when He is taken away from them (when the ...read more

  • Jesus’ Word To Those At The Top And The Bottom

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 15, 2014
     | 4,535 views

    This passage is a "sandwich," which leads to some significant parallels and contrasts.

    THE KEY TO UNDERSTANDING THIS PASSAGE: This story is a sandwich. - What does that mean? This is one of the multiple places in the Bible where a story is begun, then interrupted by another story, and then the first story is revisited and concluded. When that happens, there is always a great ...read more

  • What’s Your Business?

     | 3,827 views

    To urge people to deliberately begin to love and to associate with at least one lost person for the purpose of unapologetically inviting them to answer Jesus’ call to repent

    I want to begin this morning by showing a deeply moving and theologically packed video clip that not only is animated and frivolous, but also 3 months too early in the year. But, this does help introduce a certain character we’re going to learn from this morning. (Show clip from “The ...read more

    A Sad Truth: Not everyone gets the answer God was willing to give. - Matthew 9:30a. Seven Barriers To Getting Your Miracle: 1. Can’t see things clearly. - Matthew 9:27 – “two blind men” 2. Public ridicule. - Matthew 9:27 – “calling out” - The Greek ...read more

  • Why Did Jesus Tell People To Stay Quiet About The Miracles?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Feb 25, 2014
     | 11,064 views

    It's a curious thing: Jesus regularly instructed people to keep quiet about the miracle He'd done for them. This passage provides insight into why Jesus did that.

    A LINGERING QUESTION: Why did Jesus tell people to stay quiet about the miracles? - Matthew 9:31. - This is something that happens repeatedly throughout the gospels: Jesus does a miracle and then instructs the healed not to share what happened. - It’s hard to understand: wouldn’t you ...read more
