The Jerk

March 11, 2021

A jerk is someone who thinks they have the answer to all the problems and tries to quickly fix things so they can move on. What we need to be, as the Body of Christ, is a Church family who weeps together and rejoices together. The only way we can do this is if we stop trying to fix everything and simply sit and listen, loving well and patiently letting someone process however long it takes.

God always sees a bigger picture than we do and He often calls us to trust Him when we don’t see how something is possible. When we put our faith in Him and step out as He leads, we will be astonished at what He can do.

The Bible tells us that we are all going to sin and mess up, however God made a way through His Son so that we can be forgiven and healed. No matter how far away we may have gotten by the poor choices we’ve made, we can always come back to Him, pick up where we left off and move on.

The Bible tells us the standards that must be met for elders and deacons who lead in a church. The Church already has a leader, Jesus Christ, but those who teach and protect in the Church must do it in such a way that they are servants of God and His people.

As Christians we tend to point our fingers at other people’s sins and ignore our own, however it is not until we can admit to our own sin that we fully experience God’s grace and mercy and can extend it to someone else. Jesus is the only one who lived a perfect life and can say that everyone else has sinned, and it was His death that made it possible for us all to be made clean.

Too often we chase after things of this world to fulfill us when in reality the only fulfillment that we can ever find is in Christ. We are only alive for so long and we must make the most of our time by pursuing what God has and wants for us so that we do not get to the end having wasted the one life He gave us.

Hindsight gives us the ability to look back in the past to see a situation clearly based on the outcome, while faith allows us to have hindsight in the middle of any situation because we know that it will all be okay. When we trust God and focus on Him regardless of the trial we face, He will give us wisdom and strength to get through whatever it is we are going through.

The Bible is filled with instruction for living our lives to avoid facing moments of wishing we could have, should have or would have done something differently. We must spend time in God’s Word, heed His instructions, and take a stand when necessary for what He tells us is the right thing to do.

In order to feed our spiritual selves so that we do not starve, it is essential that we not only read the words in the Bible, but that we process them as well. We need other people in our lives to disciple us and show us how to chew on certain parts of Scripture so that we can be satisfied, and then we can help others.

There are times in our lives when we face seemingly impossible situations and we turn to God and ask Him for a miracle to fix what it is we are facing. Sometimes He does choose to perform a miracle because He will get glory out of it and it is also for the purpose of building our trust and faith in Him.
March 1, 2021
We will constantly be tempted to sell out our Christianity for a certain reputation, job, relationship, anything that the devil might offer us. We must remember that our relationship with Jesus is priceless and He has already given us all that we could ever want in Himself.

About Richard Ellis

Authentic... Genuine... Sincere... This guy is the real deal. He loves God. He loves his wife Rebecca and his 3 daughters. He loves people. He loves his job. He loves Texas BBQ. He loves an occasional round of golf. And he loves the Dallas Cowboys (but don’t hold that against him!).

Richard grew up as a missionary kid in Brazil, coming back to the states to finish his education. He graduated from Baylor University in 1982 with a BA in Oral Communications, and earned his MDIV in 1985 from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, making him the sixth generation of pastors in his family. His early days of ministry included serving for three years as the Single Adults Pastor at the First Baptist Church of Dallas.

Then in 1997, Richard Ellis founded Reunion Church, a multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, non-denominational church in the heart of Dallas,Texas. Dallas needed a church like it. And it would need a pastor like Richard. So Reunion Church was born. And now the radio show and the website (www.RichardEllisTalks.com) join the Reunion Church community under the leadership of this guy. And we’re all the better for it!
