Ron Hutchcraft Ministries, Inc. - How Families Get in Trouble - #8251 | Radio Program | A Life That Matters
I’m Ron Hutchcraft and that is actually not the first time a big mess has resulted from the lack of communication. In fact, that’s how many families get in trouble, because the captain and the pilot aren’t communicating.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries, Inc. - Avoiding An Avalanche At Your House - #8204 | Radio Program | A Life That Matters
It has been a crazy winter a lot of places—some very cold, cold, lots of snow and some unusually warm days thrown in. That could be one reason we keep hearing about people who've been killed by a sudden avalanche. The authorities are taking some steps to do what they can to prevent avalanches. They get this cannon that they fire and they shoot it into vulnerable accumulations of snow. They're actually trying to start an avalanche! The theory is that when you do a small avalanche, you can avoid a big one.

Devotional : Listening To Each Other
How often during a conversation do you find yourself thinking about what you are going to say next, rather than listening to what the other person is really saying? One of the simplest ways we can put love into action is to offer our undivided attention and take our thoughts off ourselves.

Devotional : Listening To God
Our relationship with Jesus has much in common with our relationships with friends and family. When we demonstrate effort and commitment in our relationships, they flourish. When neglected or abandoned, they suffer and decline. As with any relationship, listening plays a very important part.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Around, But Not With - #4357
There's something I've learned over the years from my relationship with Karen. It's easy to be around someone but not with him or her - like a couple watching a movie or TV. When you're just around someone, there's no real dialog, no real exchange, no real transaction, no real difference. I've done that with my Lord far too many times. Maybe you have, too.
