Synopsis

I think that you would agree with me that the Bible is our sole source of Truth, and is good for education, correction and training.

In the Gospel of John, Chapter 21 and verse 25, we read that “Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written."

With all of these events, miracles and stories to put in to just one Book (the Bible), “why” did the Lord decide to put this particular story in it?

Could it be that there are certain principles and lessons that He wants you to learn and apply in your life?

And, could it be that these events, miracles and stories are much more than what we might remember from our Sunday School Days as a young child?


Serving in ministry in any capacity takes guts. When one assumes the role of leader within a church they in essence put a target on their back – a spiritual one and a physical one.

Whether warranted or not, ministers and church leaders are held to a higher standard than others and perhaps they should live at a higher standard as by default they are the example many look to emulate in their desire to know God more.

One of the greatest ChurchBusters is “idolatry”. I’m not talking eight foot tall totem poles of carved birds and beasts standing in the corner in our living rooms. I’m talking about anything that comes between us and the relationship God desires to have with us.

In Scripture were two kings that exemplify what happens when good men and women fail to remove idols from their lives and the impact these idols can have on their ministries and the lives of those under their ministry.

These two kings were King Asa and King Josiah. Both men were said to be good men who “did what was right in the eyes of the Lord” but beyond that there was a significant difference between the two.

Here is their ChurchBuster episode.
