Send us a text As Christ's followers, we are called to sit at many tables Jesus may have flipped. As you sat at tables yesterday for Thanksgiving, were you surrounded by those with whom you would never choose to break bread? Were you sitting with those who have cast stones or sown seeds of discord, hate, or hurt at past family gatherings? What is Christ saying to His True Church about times like these? Find out in this episode of Reflective Hour with Tammy Toney-Butler.&...

Send us a text As Christ followers, we often face adversity in childhood, adulthood, or both. We call out to God to save us and wonder where He was. We ask, "Why me, Lord?" Calling out to a Savior to save us, redeem us from bondage, yet see no deliverance. Where was He when my child died? My spouse got cancer? When I was raped, beaten? Where was this God you speak of, for my experience was one of waiting on a Savior who was not responding to my calls for help? We all have moments whe...

Send us a text In this episode, we explore Luke 7:36-50, Jesus's love and mercy for a prostitute—a woman labeled by society and church leaders as unworthy, a sinner, dirty, and lost. Yet, Jesus professed His love for her, forgave her sins, and set her free. Free from the lies, hate, and judgment of others. Dive into this episode and get set free by the pool of Living Water as it flows from the True Vine. Buy Me A Coffee Please buy me a cup of coffee to support my work. Donations are...

Send us a text This episode explores God's Truth about those He entrusts in our care. Are we teaching them to have steadfast faith that will see them through any circumstances they face? The Winds of Change Will Blow, but where will you be standing? On the side of what is noble, pure, correct? Or with the World's truth? In our lives, we each make choices and decisions that affect others. Do we steer them closer to the truth or cast them to the wind, hoping they find their...

Send us a text As Christians, we are taught to love others as ourselves, forgive those who persecute us, pray for them, and walk in the light of God’s Word. As in the time of the Egyptians when they were being brought out of bondage and into the Promised Land. Leaving the oppressive land and abuse did not mean they would be free of its negative influence. False pagan worship was everywhere, and evil was still present in the world. God promised if they would rely on Him and not rebel against H...

Send us a text God's action in bringing the Israelites out of Egypt showed His great desire to dwell among and protect them, as a good Father wants to do for His children. God wants to live in our hearts, guide us, and direct our steps. Our peace is our responsibility, and we must protect it at all costs, place healthy boundaries or borders, and follow the peace and stillness of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit will guide us, whisper to us, and protect us as long as we do not rebel aga...

Send us a text Being delivered out of bondage can be messy work. After all, people can become comfortable in the uncomfortable, dirty truth of their current circumstances. Abusive relationships, addiction, poverty, marginalization, oppression, and periods of drought and famine-spiritual and physical. Change is hard. Change can result in more work, pain, and periods of drought as you overcome the darkness and seek the light. Hope, joy, peace, and provision are found on the other s...

Send us a text God is serious about a relationship with Him as He was in the days of Moses. Sin separates us from God. In Exodus, God set up a system of sacrifices so people could approach Him after purification. God sent His Only Begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the Cross so we could gain access to a relational God. Before Christ, the Priests were the people's representatives before God. Christ’s death on the Cross allowed us to directly fellowship-communion with God. A direct line of ...

Send us a text Have you surrendered those past hurts, lies, and broken promises to Christ? Do you have a relationship with Him, or does He even know you? What's that? You're on the service team at church, the board of a non-profit, a sponsor for needy children, and a volunteer at a homeless shelter. But does Jesus know you? Are you surrendering and obeying His will for your life, or are you dictating what you believe is His will? Have you given up on trying to control everything? Are y...

Send us a text Today's mini message of hope brings out the essence of Reflective Hour. As we sit in the darkness, may we unveil His Light of Truth and be transformed and renewed in mind, body, and spirit. The truth of His Word sets even the most oppressed, depressed, and hopeless free.

Send us a text My testimony of faith and freedom found in Christ. I was transformed by His marvelous light and set free. Freedom from childhood rape, freedom from the loss of a father through suicide as a teenager, freedom from food addiction, and freedom from the trauma cascade of shame, fear, regret, self-loathing, guilt, and inability to sleep. You can be set free, too. I found hope in Christ. I am no longer drowning from the weight of the trauma. The shame, fear, regret, self-loathing, s...
