Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Super Glue
Did you realize that sex is emotional and spiritual super glue? It deeply bonds people to each other whether they are aware of it or not. ... You will bond even if you never meant to. It is painful to separate when you have done something that permanently bonds.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Viruses in Your Computer - #4452
There are wrong desires that literally start a war in your soul. And whatever feeds those destructive desires is a virus in your mind and heart that you cannot afford - no matter how exciting; no matter how interesting it appears to be. That's why God says the strategy for keeping your soul from being poisoned is simple - abstain. Stay away from sinful desires and the influences that feed them. In fact, as 2 Timothy 2:22, says, run away from them!

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Spiritual Snowmen - #4442
Sadly, what happens to snowmen seems to be happening to more and more of God's people. They're slowly going soft, melted by the heat of a culture that applies heavy pressure to compromise both Christian convictions and Christian lifestyles. And some of us are becoming so melted that you can hardly tell the difference between us and the lost people around us.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Stink Takes Over - #4538
You may feel a little defensive about the input that you like, but just ask yourself a few questions about what you watch, and what you listen to, what you read, what you laugh at, and who you hang around with. Is it making me a little harder inside than I was? Am I having more sinful fantasies than I used to? Am I becoming a little more tolerant of sinful things than I ever used to put up with? Am I flirting mentally with some of the things that I know are wrong? Am I finding the good things less interesting and more boring? Is my heart getting a little colder toward Jesus?

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Linus Minus his Blanket - #4434
Now, maybe we shouldn't be so amused by Linus and the security blanket he can't do without. Because most of us, maybe all of us, have a blanket of our own. Not literally, of course. But we're all pretty attached to something or someone that we really, really need. Maybe someone or something that to a significant extent defines who we are. Unfortunately, there comes a time in all our lives when we can't hang onto that blanket anymore. Sometimes, it's literally stripped from our hands.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Deepest Cry Of The Human Heart - #4414
I don't know about you, but that cry for love in Mrs. O'Hair's diary touches something inside of me. In a way, her cry is the cry of every human heart, "Somebody, somewhere, love me." And for many who do believe in God, there is still that awful vacuum. It's possible to believe in God, to do God's things, and to still miss the deep experience of His love. And without that love, the emptiness and loneliness in our heart is never satisfied - no matter how many human loves we experience.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Standing Against The Tide - #4307
Some great places have been really damaged by the slow process of erosion. So have some great people. That's why you've got to make the choices that will stop the erosion in your life.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Silent Guys - #4308
Now if you ask most women, that's part of the problem in our relationships. This guy thing called "not much talking." Or at least not much talking about what's really going on inside us. Oh, we'll talk about work and sports and cars and "stuff." But too many men just don't talk much about what they're feeling ... about what they need ... about what's hurting, what they're hoping for, what's wrong.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Never Too Old For His Lap - #4331
Maybe you've been wounded in a relationship lately, you've experienced a very painful loss. Maybe a security blanket you've depended on has been taken away. Someone who's listening today is feeling very lonely, broken, confused, maybe unlovable, or even unloved. When you were little and felt like this, you may have had a parent's lap you could run to for safety and comfort. But you're all grown up now, and you're really hurting inside.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Super Glue - #4591
Now, tape bonds to whatever you stick it on, but if you stick it to a lot of different surfaces, eventually it won't stick any more. People don't realize that every time they get really involved physically with someone they're giving away more of their bond ability - their ability to give and receive lifetime love. And then in the one relationship you really want to work, the bonding is much weaker than God ever created it to be.
