No bux October

3 comments Posted by Cham McCutchen at 8:33 AM


Before any conclusions arise, know my heart. This is not a stab or rant just a thought. My thought, as I am sipping Folgers coffee, is what if everybody who buys starbucks or your preferred chain on a weekly basis decided not to buy any special orders ( traps, caps, lattes) for a solid month. Then take that money from that and invest it into a humanitarian nonprofit organization, a mission, a missionary, the homeless, or whatever God places on your heart. Just for a month. Not a long time, not a big sacrifice. Imagine though the impact. Imagine the blessing. This is said out of encouragment because I have seen God bless those who bless others. Just a thought. No bux October anybody? Change the world!

The message brings hits a new perspective

I have read the chapter in 1 Cor. a million times, but never in The Message. It puts the last part of 1 Cor 6 in a new way. I will let it speak for itself, and see if you catch all that I see.


I Cor. 6:16-20 (msg)
There's more to sex than mere skin on skin. Sex is as much spiritual mystery as physical fact. As written in Scripture, "The two become one." Since we want to become spiritually one with the Master, we must not pursue the kind of sex that avoids commitment and intimacy, leaving us more lonely than ever—the kind of sex that can never "become one." There is a sense in which sexual sins are different from all others. In sexual sin we violate the sacredness of our own bodies, these bodies that were made for God-given and God-modeled love, for "becoming one" with another. Or didn't you realize that your body is a sacred place, the place of the Holy Spirit? Don't you see that you can't live however you please, squandering what God paid such a high price for? The physical part of you is not some piece of property belonging to the spiritual part of you. God owns the whole works. So let people see God in and through your body.

What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus
What can make me whole again?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus

Jesus loves the forgotten

0 comments Posted by Cham McCutchen at 5:26 PM

I think to many times we pass by those who are "forgotten". I am definitely guilty of this act. It is so easy to be consumed with life, decisions, success, and ___________(fill in the blank) that we overlook the opportunity to be Christ to those who are forgotten by us and society. Jesus loves the forgotten, its all in the Gospels. The ones that are in the shadows and those that fade into the backgrounds of society. He cares about them as much as He cares about me. He loves them as much as He loves me. If you take a minute and stop in your world (me included), the forgotten will appear. Will you reach out and love them the same as Christ would? This is a challenge to myself first.

"The prescription for brokenness is Jesus. He is a master at molding people back to life. Scripture makes it clear that we are all broken. No one is immune. But in Christ we can find hope and wholeness"
~ Craig Gross (Book: Jesus Loves You This I Know)

From a book that I am currently reading:

"Jesus' example was clear. Meet people where they are. Look for an opportunity to love someone by meeting a practical need. Then wait for the spiritual doors to open." ~ Jason Harper (Jesus Loves you this I know.)
