Shaking the Sin of Sexual Immorality Part 1
Wednesday, November 25, 2009
Most everyone reading these words would agree that God has given mankind the gift of sex. Since that time, man has taken that gift and created a spectrum of behavior and outcome that goes from joy, pleasure, and purpose, to death and destruction. It is a problem that has transcended all generations since the Garden of Eden. On this edition of Hope for Today, Pastor Dennis Blythe looks at this, possibly the most difficult of our sin struggles; the sin of sexual immorality.

Performing ministry today is not the same as it was in 1970. Churches that ignore this fact can, and do, find themselves in a state of stagnation. As he continues the message "The Paralysis of Stagnation", Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix refers to both Exodus 18 and Acts chapter 6; two biblical examples of believers understanding and responding to the changing world around them. Thanks for joining us here at Hope For Today on OnePlace.

Today we return to our teaching series on significant and biblically authentic service in the church. How effective and efficient is your church? No, not in a business or financial sense, but rather in a ministry sense. On Hope For Today, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix turns to both Exodus chapter 18 and Acts chapter 6 as he moves to the 2nd partition of the "Who Me...A Priest?" series. Join us as Jim begins the message "The Paralysis of Stagnation", and looks at situations in the church that can develop when it loses its momentum and effectiveness in ministry.

The Blessings We Have Part 3
10/23/2009 - Friday
Once again, we return to 1 Peter, chapter 2, as Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, concludes his current message "The Blessings We Have". Throughout this series thus far, we've been talking about the service believers give back to the Lord, and how that service does not or should not come out of compulsion or dictate, but rather be a true motivation. Please join us here on Hope For Today, as Jim identifies the sources of that motivation.

The Blessings We Have Part 2
10/22/2009 - Thursday
If you've been listening for the past two weeks or so, you know we're examining the unique facets of the service rendered back to the Lord by followers of Jesus Christ. One of those facets is our motivation. On this edition of Hope For Today, Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix continues to look at what motivates believers to be more than spectators in their churches, and to get onto the playing field of ministry. Join us as Jim resumes the message "The Blessings We Have".

The Blessings We Have Part 1
10/21/2009 - Wednesday
On our program today, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, continues his analysis of 1 Peter, chapter 2; the scriptural basis for his message entitled "The Blessings We Have". Please join us here on Hope For Today as Jim moves on to verses 9 and 10 and examines them for what he calls our ongoing motivation to "stay in the game"; serving the Lord Jesus Christ even when it hurts.

The Offerings We Give Part 4
10/20/2009 - Tuesday
Earlier we talked about people diagnosed with cancer, who become angry with their doctor because of his or her diagnosis, and the reality of their situation. A bit far fetched you say, and yet, this same mindset can be, and is present when people are confronted with their lostness. On Hope For Today, featured speaker Jim Shaddix concludes the 4th message in this series on Christian service within the church; a message entitled "The Offerings We Give". Join us as he examines 1 Peter, chapter 2, as a reference for understanding this unfortunate mindset of today.

The Offerings We Give Part 3
10/19/2009 - Monday
This ministry has always maintained that there are really only two races in the world; the fallen race of Adam, and the race of those redeemed in Jesus Christ. On this edition of Hope For Today, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix turns to I Peter, chapter 2, as he continues our current message "The Offerings We Give". While the scriptural text for this message talks about those who are chosen by God, it also addresses those who risk separation from God through their disbelief, as well as the consequences in rejecting Christ.

The Offerings We Give Part 2
10/16/2009 - Friday
Yesterday we talked about the "ways" we serve the Lord Jesus Christ. Today we talk about the "whys". In our pluralistic culture, many cling to the notion that there are many paths to eternity with God. On this edition of Hope For Today, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, resumes the message "The Offerings We Give", and plainly speaks to the false sense of security that tolerance and pluralism brings to those who embrace these concepts.

The Offerings We Give Part 1
10/15/2009 - Thursday
As we begin the next message of our series entitled "Who Me...A Priest?", we're aware that this title may catch some off guard. After all, isn't the position of priest reserved for the clergy or professional ministers only? On Hope For Today, Pastor Jim Shaddix of the Riverside church in Denver, begins the next message in the series; a message entitled "The Offerings We Give". Please join us as Jim addresses the offerings or service we give to the Lord as believers, but more importantly, our motives in doing so.

The Service We Offer Part 4
10/14/2009 - Wednesday
Once again, we refer to the title of our current series "Who Me...A Priest?" Perhaps this title has really captured your attention and you're wondering, "What is the biblical basis for the redeemed in Christ to be priests in His service?" On Hope For Today, featured speaker Jim Shaddix turns to both the Old and New Testaments to illustrate the principle of our ministry to the Lord as priests. Join us as Jim concludes the message "The Service We Offer".

The Service We Offer Part 3
10/13/2009 - Tuesday
Our current series is called "Who Me...A Priest". So far, we've learned that all who are redeemed in Christ, are also called to be priests in His service. It is not who we are or what we've done that makes this so, but rather the identity we have in Christ. On Hope For Today, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix continues the series with the 2nd half of the message "The Service We Offer", as he examines the service we offer back to the Lord.

The Service We Offer Part 2
10/12/2009 - Monday
Many believers today find themselves as spectators in their church instead of actively serving God in any number of ways. Some are perfectly happy with this situation. Others assume that previous issues in their lives somehow prevent them from really participating in the life of the church. On Hope For Today, Pastor Jim Shaddix continues the message "The Service We Offer", and challenges this kind of thinking so that all may know and understand how we are called to be priests in our service to Jesus Christ.

The Service We Offer Part 1
10/9/2009 - Friday
The old saying goes "You can't tell a book by its cover!" Simply meaning that what is on the outside of the book doesn't always convey what is on the inside. Continuing in his current series "Who Me...A Priest?", Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix begins the next message in the series entitled "The Service We Offer". Referencing 1 Peter, chapter 2, Jim examines the things we have to offer the Lord, regardless of how we see ourselves and our struggles.

The One We Serve Part 2
10/8/2009 - Thursday
Thank you for joining us here at Hope For Today on OnePlace. The term "priesthood" invokes or suggests high standards. But, who sets those standards? And, who can live up to them? On our program today, Pastor Jim Shaddix concludes the second message in our series entitled "Who Me...A Priest?", and plainly concludes that Jesus Christ, our High Priest, not only is the Standard, but also enables us to answer His call to our own priesthood. Please join us for the conclusion of "The One We Serve".

The One We Serve Part 1
10/7/2009 - Wednesday
Over the past few days, we've been learning about the high calling of all believers in Jesus Christ. We're all called to be priests! Perhaps you're asking, "What exactly does that mean?" On this edition of Hope For Today, featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the 2nd message of his series "Who Me...A Priest?", and examines the example set by Jesus Christ Himself, for those who are called to a priesthood. Join us today, as Jim begins the message "The One We Serve".

The Identity We Share Part 2
10/6/2009 - Tuesday
If you heard yesterday's program, you probably heard teaching pastor Jim Shaddix plainly say "All who are redeemed in Christ, are called to be priests!". Perhaps this aroused your curiosity. Perhaps your response to this series entitled "Who Me...A Priest?" is, "No way...not me!". On Hope For Today, Jim refers to 1 Peter, chapter 2 in his teaching on the priesthood of those who are redeemed in Christ, and also examines the reluctance in our understanding this unique calling. Please join us today as he concludes the first message in the series; a message entitled "The Identity We Share".

The Identity We Share Part 1
10/5/2009 - Monday
Most of us have probably never given much thought to the possibility of being a priest. After all, isn't that a role reserved for a special group of individuals? The answer is yes, but not necessarily the group of people you're thinking of. Today, we begin a series by Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix entitled "Who Me...A Priest?"; a series dedicated to our understanding of the priesthood we are called to as followers of Jesus Christ. Pastor Shaddix turns to 1 Peter, chapter 2, as the starting point in our first message he calls "The Identity We Share", and looks at our biblical calling to be priests; not by our own merit, but by who we are in Christ.

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff
10/2/2009 - Friday
Financial discipline and accountability are facts of life. And, there are few people who, at one time or another, have not been anxious and consumed by financial worries. On this edition of Hope For Today, featured speaker Dr. Jim Shaddix begins the message "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff - Working For Ministry, Not Worrying About Money". Join us as Jim references the familiar words of Jesus in Matthew chapter 6, verse 25, as the basis for seven principles that directly contradict the worry brought about by financial concerns.

Series: Stewardship
 
 
Yesterday, we began the 2nd message in our series on stewardship; a message entitled "Serving God, Not Serving Stuff". This title suggests a proper prioritization of what we have to offer back to the Lord. On this edition of Hope For Today, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix concludes this message as he examines the biblical instruction to "lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven". Please join us as Jim suggests what these treasures look like, and why they are so important in this life, as well as the life hereafter.

Series: Stewardship
 
 
Within the opening comments in each of the remaining messages this week, featured speaker Jim Shaddix mentions some very sobering statistics; statistics that vividly point to the need for a better understanding of financial priorities and disciplines. On Hope For Today, Jim moves to a message he calls "Serving God, Not Serving Stuff". Today, he establishes several biblical ground rules that allow us to define and prioritize "kingdom investments".
