Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Stat Living - #5138
What does it mean to live wisely? It's buying up the time, redeeming the time, and making the most of every opportunity. Why? Because the days are evil. You can tell how smart a person is by how they use their time.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - So Near, Yet So Far - #5160
Those first four - they all end up in the same place. Now there's a big difference in rejecting Christ and agreeing with Him, but they all end up in the same place, "I never knew you" because agreement isn't commitment. Because I agreed with my wife on things, was that what made us married? No, because you agree with all of Jesus' teachings, you believe all of it, does that make you really His? No. Not until the day you make your own personal visit up that hill - that hill where the cross is where God's Son is paying for your sin.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Light Right in Front of You - #5166
You can know all about a gift, appreciate a gift, have the gift right in front of you and still miss the gift because you never took the gift for yourself.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - How to Make a Decision You Will Like a Year From Now - #5187
Before you make your choice, make an honest list of what you'll lose in the deal, what could go wrong, what could change, what or who it could affect later, how it will affect the key people in your life. Now this doesn't necessarily mean you shouldn't do it. It means you walk into your decision knowing the cost and choosing to pay it.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Strategy for Bringing You Down - #4008
hat strategy for bringing a tree down actually can work on people, too - especially on those of us who belong to Jesus Christ. Cut the tree - or the believer - off from its life-supply. Before long, it will be relatively easy to bring that believer down. Without even knowing it, that softening, weakening process may be happening in your life right now.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Worst Trade in the World - #4031
OK, now, good traders try to end up getting something better than what they gave away. It doesn't always happen. In our word for today from the Word of God, Esau made what was arguably the worst trade anyone has ever made. He traded a priceless treasure for a relatively worthless trinket. Tragically, someone reading today may be making a trade like that right now.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The "Others" Factor - #4083
It's interesting how responsibility can change the way we live - or how it should change the way we live. Like a certain skiing father I know, you do some things differently when you start thinking about how it could affect people you care about - people you very appropriately feel responsible for. In essence, you start living God's way when you no longer approach life as if it's all about you.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Going Where You've Never Gone - Seeing What You've Never Seen
My friend actually had to move out of where he felt comfortable to experience some exciting things he'd never experienced before. So do you and I. That is, in fact, a fundamental principle of getting all our Lord Jesus wants us to experience. And maybe it's important we talk about that today - because someone who's listening may be stuck in their comfort zone, missing some scary but exciting things that God wants you to see.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Staying Close to the Cross - #5239
Let the price that Jesus paid for you define your priorities. Live for the One who loves you the most, who gave His life for you. Don't let anyone or anything push Him to the edge. Let the cross inspire your humility, no matter how successful, how applauded and how appreciated you may be. Don't ever forget you're nothing except for that cross. Let the cross help you say no to sin. Jesus died for that sin!

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Crossing the Grand Canyon - #5276
We have only one hope of crossing the grand canyon we've never been able to cross, and that is literally being carried across in the arms of Jesus Christ. He can rescue you from your dark side because He died to pay the penalty for all your sins, and then He rose from the dead to prove that He has beaten everything that has beaten us.
