How do you do that? Impress His teachings on your children. It doesn't just say tell them or teach them. It says to impress them. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/someones-been-talking-about-you-6727 2012-10-24T10:57:42-05:00 You are not traveling this road alone. Someone's talking about you. Jesus is talking to His Father about you. Man, that's good to know. That makes all the difference. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-relationships/the-hands-tell-it-all-6591 2012-04-16T10:15:27-05:00 Jesus wants to be with you every remaining day of your life, and He wants you to be with Him forever. Could you reach out to Him today? And when you've taken your last breath, you'll meet Him at last. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/the-message-at-macy-s-parade-6489 2011-11-28T11:19:58-05:00 There's only one person who even claimed to die for our sins. There's only one person who backed up that claim by walking out of His grave under His own power, because only someone who has eternal life can give it. Jesus alone paid the price so you and I wouldn't have to. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/always-time-for-a-time-out-6371 2011-06-13T14:59:44-05:00 When you exercise the faith to take your time out each week, your judgment improves, your energy goes up, your creativity is greater, your confidence is greater, your personality's better to be around, and you return to your responsibilities a better you. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/navigating-stormy-weather-6370 2011-06-13T14:42:37-05:00 Don't base your life on what's going to change in 20 minutes—which is your feelings. Base it on the Word of God which hasn't changed in 20 centuries. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/the-way-home-6364 2011-06-03T09:48:15-05:00 Jesus literally took our hell so we could have His heaven. Then, three days after He died, Jesus walked out of His grave and blew away death! Only the Man who paid for your sins can forgive your sins. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/the-servant-has-the-key-6334 2011-04-21T09:57:52-05:00 In a self-serving world, a servant is really noticed. They're a non-threatening person, and a person can relax then around you. And then you can share your Jesus with them. How do you open up a hard heart? Well, the servant has the key. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-most-important-relationship/come-when-your-name-is-called-6330 2011-04-15T13:08:58-05:00 Jesus said, "No one can come to Me unless the Father draws him." And if you feel today that tug in your heart - that drawing - that's the Father making it possible for you to come to Christ. You can't even come to Christ without His help. That's why it's important to move when God is moving in your life. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-mission/the-fear-of-losing-your-place-6314 2011-03-30T16:39:27-05:00 Ask yourself, "Will I risk losing something precious or powerful to stand for my belief?" It's time to reaffirm whose you are, and whose you will be long after your current position is a memory. He will honor you if you honor Him. So, break out of the prison of loving men's praise more than God's.
