Series: Who Me...A Priest?
Picture this.  A football team takes the field with each player having a different vision of how the game plan should be executed, and how the game can be won.  What's missing here?  The unity of mind and mission that any group of people must have to achieve a particular goal.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix continues in Ephesians chapter 4, as he explains the Apostle Paul's insistence for unity among the early Christian believers.  Please join us as Jim continues the message <b>"The Appeal for Consistent Conduct"</b>.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Series: Who Me...A Priest?
Today we continue with our study in Ephesians chapter 4, and with our message entitled <b>"The Appeal for Consistent Conduct"</b>.  As we learned earlier, a major emphasis of Paul's letter to the churches in and around Ephesus was that of unity; a mindset that contradicted the multi-ethnic and pluralistic religious setting of the day.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Pastor Jim Shaddix begins by underscoring the function and purpose of the Bible, so that we may better understand God's agenda of transforming us into the image of Christ.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
The theme established by the apostle Paul early in the book of Ephesians, was that of unity and power for those Gentiles who were coming under the lordship of Jesus Christ.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix examines chapters one and two of Ephesians as he continues the message <b>"The Appeal for Consistent Conduct"</b>, and plainly makes the case for the application of these attributes to the New Testament church of today.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
Today we begin the 3rd partition of Dr. Shaddix' series entitled <b>"Who Me...A Priest?"</b>; a series devoted to our understanding of the priesthood we belong to as the redeemed in Christ.  Partitions one and two dealt with the calling to, and the organization of our priesthood.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, we turn to the book of Ephesians, as Jim begins the 3rd aspect of this series with a message entitled <b>"The Appeal for Consistent Conduct"</b>.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Series: Who Me...A Priest?
The mission of the contemporary church can be expressed in two primary elements; the preaching and teaching of God's word, <u><b>and</b></u> the meeting of needs of people both inside and outside the church.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix concludes the message entitled <b>"The Plan for Mobilization"</b>.  Please join us as Jim presents two challenges to the church that directly impact its ability to plan for, and execute "effective" mobilization.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
Using both Exodus chapter 18 and Acts chapter 6, Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix begins the next message in this series on effective servant hood; a message entitled <b>"The Plan for Mobilization"</b>.  As we discovered earlier this week, these two passages have a striking similarity in that they both depict God's people understanding and reacting to the changing culture around them.  Please join us here at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace as Jim parallels this same need for the contemporary church; specifically the value in preaching and teaching God's word.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Series: Who Me...A Priest?
An old Irish proverb says "Many hands make light work"; a reference to a job or goal more easily accomplished through the involvement of many.   On <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix continues his message entitled <b>"The Priorities for Evaluation"</b>, and looks at the need for properly managing the ministry efforts of the church.  Specifically, Jim looks at the issues of frustration and burn out that can occur when too many ministries are supported by too few people.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
Over the past month or so, we've been hearing a series entitled <b>"Who Me.....A Priest?"</b>.  The first portion of the series focused on improving our understanding of the fact that <b>all</b> who are redeemed in Christ, are called to a priesthood of service to the Lord.  The second partition of the series deals with the "effective mobilization" of believers ministering to the lost world around us.  Please join us here at <i>Hope For Today</i>, as featured speaker Jim Shaddix continues this series with a message entitled <b>"The Priorities for Evaluation"</b>.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
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 <b>"The Paralysis of Stagnation"</b>, Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix refers to both Exodus 18 and Acts chapter 6; two biblical examples of believers understanding <b>and</b> responding to the changing world around them.  Thanks for joining us here at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix turns to both Exodus chapter 18 and Acts chapter 6 as he moves to the 2nd partition of the <b>"Who Me...A Priest?"</b> series.  Join us as Jim begins the message <b>"The Paralysis of Stagnation"</b>, and looks at situations in the church that can develop when it loses its momentum and effectiveness in ministry.

Once again, we return to 1 Peter, chapter 2, as Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, concludes his current message <b>"The Blessings We Have"</b>.  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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, as Jim identifies the sources of that motivation.

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, 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 <b>"The Blessings We Have"</b>.

Please join us here on <i>Hope For Today</i> 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.

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix concludes the 4th message in this series on Christian service within the church; a message entitled <b>"The Offerings We Give"</b>.  Join us as he examines 1 Peter, chapter 2, as a reference for understanding this unfortunate mindset of today.

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix turns to I Peter, chapter 2, as he continues our current message <b>"The Offerings We Give"</b>.  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.

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, resumes the message <b>"The Offerings We Give"</b>, and plainly speaks to the false sense of security that tolerance and pluralism brings to those who embrace these concepts.

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, Pastor Jim Shaddix continues the message <b>"The Service We Offer"</b>, and challenges this kind of thinking so that <b>all</b> may know and understand how we are called to be priests in our service to Jesus Christ.

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

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
Over the past few days, we've been learning about the high calling of all believers in Jesus Christ.  We're <i><b>all</b></i> called to be priests!  Perhaps you're asking, "What exactly does that mean?"  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the 2nd message of his series <b>"Who Me...A Priest?"</b>, 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 <b>"The One We Serve"</b>.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
If you heard yesterday's program, you probably heard teaching pastor Jim Shaddix plainly say <i><b>"All who are redeemed in Christ, are called to be priests!"</b></i>.  Perhaps this aroused your curiosity.  Perhaps your response to this series entitled <b>"Who Me...A Priest?"</b> is, "No way...not me!".  On <i>Hope For Today</i>,  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 <b>"The Identity We Share"</b>.

Series: Who Me...A Priest?
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 <b>yes</b>, but not necessarily the group of people you're thinking of.  Today, we begin a series by Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix entitled <b>"Who Me...A Priest?"</b>; 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 <b>"The Identity We Share"</b>, and looks at our biblical calling to be priests; not by our own merit, but by who we are in Christ.

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Dr. Jim Shaddix begins the message <b>"Don't Sweat the Small Stuff - Working For Ministry, Not Worrying About Money"</b>.  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.

Yesterday, we began the 2nd message in our series on stewardship; a message entitled <b>"Serving God, Not Serving Stuff"</b>.  This title suggests a proper prioritization of what we have to offer back to the Lord.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix concludes this message as he examines the biblical instruction to "lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven".

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 <i>Hope For Today</i>, Jim moves to a message he calls <b>"Serving God, Not Serving Stuff"</b>.  Today, he establishes several biblical ground rules that allow us to define and prioritize <i><b>"kingdom investments"</b></i>.

Series: He Is Enough: The Sufficiency of Christ in Colossians
Personal conduct today is being re-defined in our culture; almost to the point of anything goes.   This can be an issue for believing Christians too, as we struggle between who we are in Christ, and how our fleshly existence can sometimes run in another direction.  On our program today, featured speaker Jim Shaddix moves on to the 3rd chapter of Colossians as the basis for his message <b>"He Is Enough For Our Conduct"</b>.  Join us on <i>Hope For Today</i> as Jim explores three attitudes for our personal conduct.  That is, to be ruled by God's peace, to be controlled by Christ's word, and to be governed by Jesus' name.

On this Friday edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Dr. Jim Shaddix concludes the message <b>"He Is Enough for Our Truth"</b>.   The text for the message is the 2nd chapter of Colossians, verses 8 through 23 in which Paul directly confronts those whose false teaching was tearing up the church at Colossae.  Today, Jim looks at the 2nd and 3rd parts of Paul's argument; the problem of impractical application, and the problem in forgetting their Christological foundation.

Thank you for joining us here on <i>Hope For Today</i>.  The word ministries can be applied to a wide spectrum of activities of both individuals <b>and</b> the church.  In the first chapter of Paul's letter to the Colossians, he focused on two specific ministries; the proclamation of God's word, and prayer according to God's word.   Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix begins the message <b>"He Is Enough for Our Ministries"</b>, and focuses on the reason behind Paul's emphasis on these ministries.

On <i>Hope For Today</i>, senior teaching pastor Jim Shaddix concludes the message <b>"He Is Enough for Our God"</b>.  As we've learned throughout this week, the young Christian church was plagued with gnosticism and other false teachings.  So much so that the apostle Paul wrote what we know today as the book of Colossians in order to counteract these teachings, and to reassure the early church of Christ's sufficiency.  Stay with us as Jim closes this message with the reason for, and the result of Christ's existence.

The pluralistic thinking in our culture today allows Jesus Christ to be placed on the same shelf as Buddha, the Dahli Lama, and angel worship.  Is this just a post-modern anomaly or does it have first century roots?  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside pastor Jim Shaddix, resumes his look at the credentials of Jesus Christ as noted by the apostle Paul in the book of Colossians; credentials meant to counter and correct the false teachings that were running rampant in the city of Colossae.

Series: He Is Enough: The Sufficiency of Christ in Colossians
As we learned yesterday, there was a very distinct heresy going around the Asia Minor town of Colossae.  In fact, Colossae may have been the first documented example of synchretism or "salad bar Christianity"; that is, the picking and choosing of doctrine to fit ones own personal likes, and ignoring the rest.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the next message in his Colossians study; a message entitled <b>"He Is Enough For Our God"</b>.

Series: He Is Enough: The Sufficiency of Christ in Colossians
Once again, we begin another of Dr. Shaddix' seminary series; this one from the book of Colossians.  The series is entitled <b>"He Is Enough: The Sufficiency of Christ in Colossians"</b>, and is based on the apostle Paul's 3rd letter written from a Roman prison cell.  On today's broadcast, Pastor Shaddix begins the message <b>"He Is Enough for Our Pleasure"</b>.  We live in a culture that lives for the "quick fix".  In situation comedies, there is no problem that can't be fixed inside of 30 minutes.  Does this mentality extend to spiritual matters as well?  Do people tend to put their faith in the unseen, enduring message of the gospel?  Or do they look for the quick fix?  Please join us as Jim begins this study on the long-term answer; the sufficiency of Jesus Christ.

Consider this contemporary, yet familiar sound bite from the apostle Paul; <i><b>"I know what I ought to do, but I just can't do it.  And the things I know I ought not to do, I end up doing!"</b></i>  Is there a believer out there who can't identify with these words?  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix looks at a problem that befalls every Christian at one time or another; the residual effects of sin on our physical bodies.  Join us today here on OnePlace.

For the past few days, we've been talking about the hard-to-talk-about subject of sin.  As is his custom, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix has defined the topic, but now moves on to the mechanics of sin; where it came from, and how we got it.  In the first part of this message, he'll be defining several terms; most importantly, the terms original sin, and inherited sin.  Join us here on OnePlace as he explains.

What is sin?  Well, according to earlier messages from teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, sin is anything that misses God's mark, or standard for our lives.  For the sake of this study, we'll also consider Dr. Wayne Grudem's definition.  <i><b>"Sin is any failure to conform to the moral of God, in act, attitude, or nature."</b></i>  Join us here on <i>Hope For Today</i>, as Pastor Shaddix continues his message that defines the origins of sin.

The people living in the United States share the freedoms of individuality and diversity.  And,  whether they know it or not, they also share something else that is equally universal; a sin nature.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, and as a part of this series that looks at God's treasured creation, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix takes a look at the negative side of man's nature; that being his propensity to sin.

As we continue on with this topic of what makes up the non-physical, or spiritual being of the human man or woman, Riverside's leadership pastor Dennis Blythe switches gears within the topic to include the Bible's view of the overall unity of man as created by God.  Dennis turns to the familiar words of Psalms 139 to bring a less clinical, more scriptural description of God's involvement in our development, specifically our spiritual development.

On yesterday's edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, we threw around some big words like monistic, dichotomist, and trichotomist.  Before you reach for your dictionary, they are three divergent viewpoints describing the spiritual makeup of man.  Today, Riverside leadership pastor Dennis Blythe continues this message, as he further drives out the very unique differences in these three thought processes, and how they impact mankind today.

When hearing all the scriptural texts that are the basis for this message we've been listening to for the past few days, familiarity makes it easy to equate them to a wedding only and not a broader application.  As he concludes the message <b>"Men and Women: Equal But Different"</b>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix reminds us to consider this message not just on the horizontal plain of earthly living, but more so on a broader vertical plain of understanding our Creator, and His plan or design for us.

Yesterday, we looked at problematic attitudes over the last 60 years, that have led us down paths that have caused much confusion and mistrust.  Male chauvinism ushered in multiple women's movements, which brought about social change; not all of it good.  In that same discussion, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix established that regardless of their creative sequence, both men and women are equal in God's eyes, and are a reflection His nature.  Join us today as Jim continues this look at God's creative order, and His consideration in designing mankind.

Given enough time, human logic and reasoning can alter or diminish the most basic and wholesome of things.  And so it is with a man's role in marriage.  In our modern day society, secular thinking has caused great confusion and damage to a man's role in the marital relationship.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, Pastor Drew Stephens concludes the message entitled <b>"The High Calling of Husbands"</b>, and practically applies Paul's words in Ephesians chapter 5, verse 25; which says <i>"Husbands, love your wives as Christ also loved the church..."</i>

Yesterday, we learned that the subject of marriage should not be looked at <u><b>only</b></u> from a contemporary, "special interest" point of view.  We must also understand the biblical and historical component of marriage that firmly links it to the gospel.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix concludes the message <b>"God's Video of Christ and His Church"</b>, and parallels the marital union of man and wife to that of the marriage between the bride-groom Jesus Christ, and his bride the church.

Series: The Mystery of Marriage
Today we begin Pastor Shaddix' 2006 preaching series entitled <b>"The Mystery of Marriage"</b>.  As our society gets more and more whipped up about defining, or re-defining marriage, many people will ask, "What's the big deal?"  They view it simply from the perspective of individual rights.  In message number one of this series, Jim goes to great lengths to deepen that perspective, and to help us understand the biblical and spiritual significance of marriage; that is, the role of marriage in the preservation of the gospel.  Join us today as Jim references Ephesians chapters 3 and 5 as the basis for the message <b>"God's Video of Christ and His Church".</b>

If asked, many people would equate repentance and turning from their sinful ways with the clichéd phrase "turning over a new leaf".  But is this true?  On our program today, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix makes a more definitive distinction in this process, as he concludes his message <b>"Turning From Our Sinful Ways"</b>.  Join us here at OnePlace as he leads us through a consideration of not only what is to be left behind, but also, what is to take its place.

Series: Face to Face With Our God
Consider the words of this scripture we've been examining these past few days, <i><b>"If my people, who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways"</b></i>.  Another way of saying "turn from their wicked ways" is repentance.  Okay, no rocket science there.  But did you ever think that through?  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the last message in this brief series <b>"Turning From Our Sinful Ways"</b>, and offers a more complete look at the process of repenting and turning.

Series: Face to Face With Our God
Many of us, when speaking with others about Christianity, have encountered the response "I believe religion is a private matter."  As he concludes the message <b>"Seeking God's Face"</b>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix notes that while there is a time for personal worship and prayer, there is nothing in either the old or new testaments that limits our "God journey" to a personal or private affair.  On the contrary, our spiritual journey is one that is to be lived out in a community of faith.  Join us here at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace as he explains.

Life in much of western culture is based on self; self-seeking, self-serving, and in general, just plain self-interest, all of which is a barrier to seeking God.  On this Wednesday edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix moves to the next message in this brief series; a message he calls <b>"Seeking God's Face"</b>.

Series: Face to Face With Our God
II Chronicles 7:14, is a conditional verse in scripture.  There is a list of conditions there, the first being God's people humbling themselves.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix examines that elusive quality in today's culture, humbleness.  Today we'll see that humility is a process that comes about through a proper understanding of our relationship to authority, in not being wrongly proud or pretentious, and in stopping the noise of things that continually distract us from being quiet before the Lord.

On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Dr. Jim Shaddix concludes his 3rd point in this series dealing with recession and what God desires to do through it.  The budgets of not all, but many churches are choked with things that can actually prevent those churches from fulfilling their Great Commission work.  Could it be that God desires churches to accelerate their involvement in His global mission, by simplifying and mobilizing themselves for global, intentional disciple making?  Join us here at OnePlace as he explains.

While each of the five messages within the series will touch on something the church has known throughout its existence, the underlying theme stresses the importance of the church taking action now, while the unbelieving world is more spiritually sensitive than they've ever been.  Join us today as teaching pastor Jim Shaddix begins this message that plainly speaks of God's intention to accelerate His people's involvement in His global mission.

In times like these, meeting the needs of hurting people can be a daunting task, even with the best of intentions.  Where do you start?  The answer is right in your own church.  As we've already heard, featured speaker Jim Shaddix expressed the need to answer one fundamental question in this series concerning a world-wide global recession; and that is what is God doing through it?  The answer to the question comes in five discrete parts.  Today, Jim concludes his 2nd point in answer to the question; God intends to increase the compassion, the care, and the community among His people.

As we'll hear in today's message, in spite of our concerns over the current economic upheaval, two thirds of the world's population have always lived in recession, and will continue to do so long after economic stability returns.

On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix raises this very point, as he continues his message <b>"Don't Sleep Through the Recession"</b>.

It's a few days before Mother's Day, and perhaps the title of today's message has caught your eye in a suspicious sort of way.  Any student of history knows that women's participation in their respective cultures and religious systems has been stymied, to say the least.  Some might even say this would include the New Testament evangelical church.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, Jim Shaddix utilizes 2nd Timothy, chapter 2 to not only refute that thought but to also provide Biblical insight for women's roles in the church of today.

      <description><![CDATA[Thursday, April 30, 2009
Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Over the past two broadcasts, we've heard featured speaker Jim Shaddix say things like, <i><b>"The traditional church will survive and thrive <b>if</b> it understands that young people are leaving not because of what we're giving them, but because of what we're <b>not</b> giving them," and "the traditional church will survive and thrive <b>if</b> it intentionally disciples its people with sound doctrine through the exposition of the scripture."</b></i>  We hope you can see the incredible significance of these statements.  Today, Jim concludes the message <b>"The Future of the Traditional Church"</b>, and focuses on the "heart problems" or symptoms that lead strong churches down the wrong path.    Please join us here at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Yesterday, featured speaker Pastor Jim Shaddix made the statement "Many of the alternative venues that have arisen in recent years, are not nearly as appealing to the un-churched world, as they are to the marginally churched in our own camps".  As he continues the message <b>"The Future of the Traditional Church"</b>, Jim uses the allegory of the "Prodigal Baptist" to describe those frustrated by less than captivating worship experiences, borderline legalism, and superficial Christianity.  While many will be tempted to seek less traditional church forums, Jim looks beyond that time, and ponders what they'll find when they return to their roots.  Join us now at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace as he explains.

When you here the phrase "the traditional church", what do you think of?  A pipe organ?  A robed choir?  Responsive readings?  In the debate over traditional church verses emerging church, is the issue really style and form, or is there something else present?  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix probes that very question as he begins the message <b>"The Future of the Traditional Church"</b>.

2nd Timothy chapter 4, verse 3 says <i><b>"For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears, they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions"</b></i> (ESV).  Sound familiar?  Is this where our culture is at today?  Is this where some churches are today?  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix begins the last message in this study of 2nd Timothy; a message entitled <b>"Finishing With Faithfulness"</b>.  Join us as Jim looks at the pitfalls of re-shaping sound doctrine to fit man, instead of re-shaping man to conform to sound doctrine.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
So far in this series drawn from 2nd Timothy, we've focused mainly on ministerial fidelity.  On today's program, we move on to the equally important facet of doctrinal integrity.  Modern culture tells us that many of our country's founding documents, are living documents that can be changed to reflect a more modern time.  Can this same mentality be applied to the doctrine of evangelical Christianity?  Join us here at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace, as featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the message <b>"Fighting Against Falsehood"</b>, and plainly makes a case for maintaining the veracity of Christian doctrine.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
On <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the next message in his study of 2nd Timothy; a message entitled <b>"Holding Up Under Hardship"</b>.  We all set goals for ourselves.  But, as most of us have found out, there's no limit to the number of things that can get in the way of achieving those goals.  In the second chapter of 2nd Timothy, Paul's counsel to Timothy was to endure these pitfalls through self-denial, discipline, and diligence.  Using military, athletic, and agricultural metaphors, Paul illustrates the worthiness in keeping our focus where it belongs...on Jesus Christ.

Our current series taken from the book of 2nd Timothy is called <b>"Handing Off the Heritage"</b>.  The process of mentoring is key to this practice.  The word "mentor" suggests the transferring of experience or knowledge from an older person, to one who is at the beginning of a career or ministry.  Such was the case with Paul and Timothy.  On <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix, concludes the message <b>"Multiplying the Ministry"</b>, and underscores the importance of not only conveying the right doctrine and theology, but also conveying it to those who have been proven trustworthy.

By the time most of us reach early adulthood, we've experienced the fact that "going with the cultural flow" can be a fairly easy way of life.

Today we begin another of Dr. Shaddix' series preached during his tenure at the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary as Dean of Chapel.   The series is called <b>"Handing Off the Heritage"</b>, and is based in Paul's 2nd letter to Timothy.  The letters to Timothy were of a pastoral nature.  However, his exhortations to beware of false teachings and to be true to the faith, are good counsel to Christians anytime and anywhere. Please join us as Jim turns to chapter 1 of 2nd Timothy, and begins the first message of the series he calls <b>"Fanning the Flame”</b>.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Today's program wraps up our study on the necessity of the resurrection.  Teaching pastor Jim Shaddix references the last words of I Corinthians, chapter 15, to drive home his concluding point.  That is, a real, in-depth, and heartfelt understanding of Christ's work on the cross, will not yield a half-hearted, mediocre existence where one only lives for one's self.  But instead, it will yield a sacrificial life, overflowing in obedience and service to God, through Jesus Christ.  Listen in today as Jim explains.

It also demands a decision on the part of all who comprehend its significance.  <i><b>Will this event influence the way I live my life, or won't it?</b></i>  Join us here on OnePlace as teaching pastor Jim Shaddix connects the dots between how we perceive the resurrection, and how we live our lives every day!

Welcome to our Good Friday edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>.  Think about that first Good Friday. At this point, the resurrection was still hours away, and hope was the last thing on anyone's mind.  Death appeared to have the last say.   But, as we know today, something would soon happen that would change their understanding and their thinking; something that would become a wellspring of hope and confidence.  Join us here today as featured speaker Jim Shaddix continues his examination of Christ's resurrection, and of the hope and confidence it inspired through the apostle Paul in today's text.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, program host Jay Badry makes the observation that death statistics have not changed; it's still one per person.  No matter how much or how little a  person has accomplished in life, death is the great equalizing occurrence.  That reason alone seems to spawn a great deal of hopelessness in secular circles.  Join us today as teaching pastor Jim Shaddix explains that through His resurrection, Jesus Christ has given the believer the upper hand over the hopelessness often associated with death.

What is the connection between our lives today, and what we celebrate on Easter Sunday?  Yes! We are celebrating Christ's resurrection and victory over death.  But, are we accurately connecting it to our lives today, and the opportunity that God gives to share in an eternal relationship with Him?  On today's program, Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix shares a <i><b>very</b></i> detailed explanation of how to make that connection.  If you've never taken that step of personally connecting with Jesus Christ, not just with a "head knowledge" but with a "heart knowledge", you need to listen to today's message.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Today we begin a week long look at the seemingly unrestrained evil present in our world today.  Two glaring examples of this kind of evil were present at the Virginia Tech campus in 2007, and at Columbine High School almost ten years ago.  If there is any good to be found in events like this, it is the fact that they cause the culture to stop and ask deep and foundational questions in an attempt to find any possible level of understanding.  Over the next six broadcast days, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix will visit eight biblically based truths about God, sin, Satan, evil, and mankind.  These truths provide the basis for our understanding as begin <b>"Answering Blacksburg and Columbine - A Biblical Perspective to Unrestrained Evil"</b>.

If you were to read one of the more contemporary translations of the book of Habakkuk, you'd be surprised to see how much it can describe our world today.

On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside senior pastor Jim Shaddix, turns to Daniel chapter 10 as he begins the message <b>"The Power of Unhurried Prayer"</b>.  Today, we look at another aspect of the spiritual discipline of prayer; prayer that is not tied to a human timetable but is instead connected to God's mission in the world today.  Jim begins a list of five challenges to our understanding of the power of unhurried, God-connected prayer.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Ever since disaster struck southeast Asia in December of 2004, the word "tsunami" has increased our awareness of raw, un-harnessed energy or power.  Could those same attributes be applied to the spiritual discipline of prayer?   On <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix begins the message <b>"The Power of Unrestricted Prayer"</b>.  As the title implies, Jim suggests several principles that when applied to our prayer life, elevate the outcome to new levels of effectiveness and impact.

On <i>Hope For Today</i>, Riverside teaching pastor Jim Shaddix concludes the message <b>"The Power of Unanswered Prayer"</b>.  As we heard yesterday, it's easy for us to get caught up in ourselves and simply assume that God is not answering specific prayers.  Today, Jim continues his list of challenges to that type of thinking, and teaches a more correct understanding of what God is really doing in our lives in times like these.

Anyone who has ever earnestly prayed to the Living God, has dealt with the issue of unanswered prayer; or at least prayer not answered as they may have liked.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, we begin a series that looks at one of the fundamental or core values of the evangelical church...prayer.  Pastor Jim Shaddix, of the Riverside church in Denver, begins the message <b>"The Power of Unanswered Prayer"</b>, and uses the familiar scripture regarding Paul's thorn in the flesh to challenge our thinking in how God answers prayer.

If asked, many people would equate repentance and turning from their sinful ways with the clichéd phrase "turning over a new leaf".  But is this true?  On our program today, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix makes a more definitive distinction in this process, as he concludes his message <b>"Turning From Our Sinful Ways"</b>.  Join us here at OnePlace as he leads us through a consideration of not only what is to be left behind, but also, what is to take its place.

Consider the words of this scripture we've been examining these past few days, <i><b>"If my people, who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways".</b></i>  Another way of saying "turn from their wicked ways" is repentance.  Okay, no rocket science there.  But did you ever think that through?  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix begins the last message in this brief series <b>"Turning From Our Sinful Ways"</b>, and offers a more complete look at the process of repenting and turning.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
Many of us, when speaking with others about Christianity, have encountered the response "I believe religion is a private matter".  As he concludes the message <b>"Seeking God's Face"</b>, teaching pastor Jim Shaddix notes that while there is a time for personal worship and prayer, there is nothing in either the old or new testaments that limits our "God journey" to a personal or private affair.  On the contrary, our spiritual journey is one that is to be lived out in a community of faith.  Join us here at <i>Hope For Today</i> on OnePlace as he explains.

Series: Face to Face With Our God
II Chronicles 7:14, is a conditional verse in scripture.  There is a list of conditions there, the first being God's people humbling themselves.  On this edition of <i>Hope For Today</i>, featured speaker Jim Shaddix examines that elusive quality in today's culture, humbleness.  Today we'll see that humility is a process that comes about through a proper understanding of our relationship to authority, in not being wrongly proud or pretentious, and in stopping the noise of things that continually distract us from being quiet before the Lord.

Yesterday, Jay opened this current message that deals with what the Holy Spirit does for us at the point of our salvation.  Included in that list, is the subject of tongues.  The popular culture of the past few decades has taken this topic to levels of limited understanding that really have no place in a discussion or teachings concerning the Holy Spirit.  As both pastors Shaddix and Badry concur today, let a right understanding of scripture be our guide when it comes to learning about this subject.

Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
One of the most anticipated and sought after future events is the time of Christ's return.  The message we'll be hearing today is the last in this partition of our study of the Trinity. Riverside's Leadership Pastor Dennis Blythe begins the message <b>"The Return and Reign of Christ"</b>, and through both the old and new testaments, teaches why the almost countless predictions of this event have been, and are nothing more than exercises in futility.  Thanks for meeting us here at OnePlace.

Any student of the bible knows that in the initial creation account, there was a sense of order in what God had brought about.  But we also know that in a matter of a few chapters, it didn't take long for that order to get messed up by wayward man.  Today, we'll look at Jesus' unique role and assignment in bringing back what was originally intended.  Join us as teaching pastor Jim Shaddix concludes his current message <b>"Jesus, The Restorer of God's Creation"</b>.

Atonement...another one of the many theological terms we've been pouring over these past few weeks as we continue this series <b>"Unpacking God"</b>.  Teaching pastor Jim Shaddix begins the message <b>"Jesus, My Friendship With God"</b>, and makes a connection between the Old Testament work atonement, with its New Testament counterpart reconciliation.  Join us as Jim equates both words with Jesus' bringing us into friendship with God.

      <description><![CDATA[Monday, January 12, 2009
Host: Dr. Jim Shaddix
We're currently in the second phase of our study of the Trinity; that being God the Son.  Featured speaker Jim Shaddix turns to the opening verses of the book of John, to underscore the deity of Jesus Christ.  Today, Jim begins the message <b>"Jesus, The Revelation of God"</b>, and makes the point that the only we would be able to receive His help, and the only way we could yield ourselves to His provision, would be for Jesus to become one of us.
