Grace is Greater

July 27, 2018July 27, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ Leave a comment

I remember the time when grace first revealed itself to me. Not fully, but I saw a little corner of the truth. I was spending the summer of 2009 scanning old training records at a nuclear power plant near my hometown. Drawer by drawer, we slowly emptied the old records storage building. When we finished … Continue reading Grace is Greater

Pattern of Freedom

July 11, 2018July 11, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ Leave a comment

Any quilters out there? My hand is raised by virtue of having made one epic queen-sized quilt.If enthusiasm and optimism could make up for skill, I would be set, but alas, I tend to struggle through most of my overly ambitious projects. So, of course, I dove headfirst into a HUGE quilting project on a … Continue reading Pattern of Freedom

The Smell of Fear

June 27, 2018June 27, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ 4 Comments

I am part hippie. Maybe more hippie than not, really. And I like an alternative, all-natural personal grooming product. Lately, I've been experimenting with crystal deodorant. I've been off antiperspirant for at least a decade, so this was the next logical step. Hippie logic, that is. So in the mornings, I gently moisten the smooth, … Continue reading The Smell of Fear

For a High View of Passion

April 30, 2018April 30, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ 2 Comments

As I prepared for this week's topic on passion, I wrote a LOT-- this is an especially hard topic for me. Hard to understand what approach to take. Hard to write about something that's supposed to be personal but that I don't have a personal answer for. Hard to not be negative. Passion. It's defined … Continue reading For a High View of Passion

Dispatch from the Reorg

April 18, 2018April 18, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ Leave a comment

This week, we're writing 500 words about a time God showed up. That seems like such a strange topic in a way: I'm sure God has shown up more times than I can even count when I wasn't aware of him doing anything. He's moving all the time in ways we don't see or comprehend, … Continue reading Dispatch from the Reorg

Persevere Like Your Life Depends On It

April 4, 2018April 4, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ Leave a comment

It took me a long time to decide how to approach the topic of perseverance. It's kind of a soapbox issue for me. I have so much experience proving its worth that it's hard to know where to start the discussion. But recently, God reminded me of what seemed at the time an insignificant detail, … Continue reading Persevere Like Your Life Depends On It

My First Big Breakup

March 30, 2018March 30, 2018 ~ jonibutler ~ 2 Comments

My first time "hearing" God's voice was at the end of an embarrasing period in my life. If you ever doubt that you can hear God's voice in the midst of sin, fear not! He says He is close to the broken-hearted, and that's usually where sin leaves you sooner or later. I'd had a … Continue reading My First Big Breakup
