Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Freedom From Depression
Sometimes it's easy to feel like you're a bird locked up in a cage wanting to be free. Your cage may be your painful memories, a broken heart, or a broken dream. ... Maybe you’re caged in by an addiction, a habit, or some anger that is eating you up inside. It also might be depression or even suicidal thoughts that have you held in. There's a cover on that cage, whatever it is. It's dark in there and there isn't anything to sing about.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - An Extravagant Gift
Maybe you haven’t been shown much unconditional love. Maybe there is someone who should have been there for you in your life, but wasn't. ... Maybe there is someone who has betrayed you or who's abandoned you. There is someone who has paid an extravagant price for you. He is the One who made you and holds your eternity in His hands. He loves you very, very much. Just look at the price he paid for you.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Behind the Happy Face
Behind many a happy face hides a hurting heart, and maybe that describes you. The happy face helps you live in a temporary denial of the pain inside, and it keeps other people from knowing a you that you're afraid they might not accept. Like the beach ball that you push farther and farther under the water, the deeper you bury it, the higher it's going to go when it's released. You can't bury the real you forever. As far as everyone knows, maybe you're the happy one or maybe even the hero, but you know that there's a wounded monster inside you. You're a wounded person with no place to bleed.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Last Monster in the Dark
Are you scared to die? Does thinking about your death make you nervous about eternity? You don't have to be afraid of that monster in the dark anymore. ... The Word of God in I Corinthians 15:54 says, "Death has been swallowed up in victory. Where oh death is your victory? Where Oh death is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law, but thanks be to God, He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ." There's the last monster—the one that lurks in the dark no matter how old we are—death.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - Only an Interruption
Life's partings are tough, especially when someone we love slips into eternity. Death tears us up inside, and the grief seems almost unbearable. If you and your loved one belong to Jesus, then this is not the termination of your relationship. Only because of Jesus Christ, can this interruption be bearable.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Difference Between Life and Death
There are eight powerful words from Zephaniah 3:17 in God's Word. It simply says, "The Lord your God...is mighty to save." He really is. He has both the love and the power to do whatever it takes to save you from the emptiness and turbulence of a life away from God and from the awful agony of an eternity without Him. God is in the saving business.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - The Life Changing Moment
Sometimes you can't tell the difference between the real Christians and the ones who look like them. Literally, you can have sitting in church next to each other one person who knows Christ and is going to heaven, and another who doesn't and is headed for an eternity without Christ. They sing the same songs, know the same words, do all the same things. The difference is a life-changing moment.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - One Solid Beginning
Hopefully, after someone makes a life commitment to their spouse and they are asked if they are married, they wouldn't answer, "Well, I hope so; I think I'm married. We probably got married to each other somewhere along the way!" You'd probably say, "If you don't know you made a commitment, you didn't!" You'd be right! It's the same way when it comes to a relationship with Jesus Christ.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - So Near, Yet So Far
Here's what Jesus said in some of the most unsettling words He ever spoke, "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord' will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name drive out demons and perform many miracles? Then I will tell them plainly, 'I never knew you. Away from Me" (Matthew 7:21-23).
