If you turn the light of God's Word on your lifestyle, maybe you'll see how far you've drifted. You just can't move any more. We've got to get back to God's standards for love, for marriage, for honesty, for family, our relationships. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/designer-genes-and-chromosomes-6700 2012-09-14T10:09:37-05:00 When are you going to start celebrating what you are instead of focusing on what you aren't? You were made right! You're wired for daily contributions only you can make. And ultimately we can only discover the answer to the question, "Why am I here?" by belonging to the God who put us here http://faithaliveresources.org/Products/151167/earthwise.aspx 2011-09-22T14:24:38-05:00 Even though we humans have damaged the natural world around us, professor, author, and lifelong creation care scientist Calvin B. DeWitt shows how we can regain a joyful, positive attitude about working together for good and living in harmony with creation. Also includes discussion questions, a mini-workshop session, and more. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/why-it-s-good-to-go-m-a-d-6356 2011-05-24T15:09:28-05:00 There's a lot more reasons for getting up in the morning when you say, "Lord, help me make a difference for You today." So, as you head out each morning, well, imagine Jesus at the front door calling out to you, "Go M.A.D. for Me today! Go make a difference!" http://gospel.com/blog/index.php/2010/06/25/todays-devotional-is-environmentalism-based-on-pantheism/ 2010-07-07T09:02:47-05:00 Do you ever find it hard to care for the environment because of who else cares about it? Unfortunately, environmentalism is often packaged alongside New Age and other pantheistic belief systems. But that's not the way it needs to be. http://gospel.com/blog/index.php/2010/02/16/todays-devotional-reclaiming-our-role-as-creations-stewards/ 2010-02-18T16:53:29-05:00 What is the most Biblical the Christian attitude toward science--and Creation in particular? Have Christians set themselves up as enemies of science, and is that in line with the Bible's teaching? http://gospel.com/blog/index.php/2009/10/20/should-christians-care-about-protecting-the-environment/ 2009-10-28T10:59:51-05:00 If we truly believe that one day the earth will pass away and be replaced with a new earth (Revelation 21:1-5), then should we really care about protecting the one we live on now? http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hindrances/the-words-that-tear-down-walls-5787 2009-09-10T10:57:08-05:00 Maybe you grew up in an environment where people never admitted they were wrong. You may be in a situation where the feelings are hard, the walls are high, and where you've been really wounded. But none of that changes your responsibility as a follower of Jesus Christ to say, "I was wrong" to say, "I'm sorry" when that's the case. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%20148:1-5&version=NIV 2009-09-03T14:12:47-05:00 All in the earth and in the heavens was created by God. Our environment sprang into life at God's command, and it is He who deserves praise for its creation. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Mission/Making-the-Most-of-it-5603 2008-07-21T12:07:18-05:00 Look, you may not like the situation you're in right now, your location, your singleness, your sickness, your job, your church. But instead of lamenting your spot, God wants you to experience the wonderful joy and contentment that comes from saying, "Hey, I'm here. I'm going to be here a while. I'm going to make the most of it!"
