Rich Butler on Making Room for God and A Spirit-Led Church

Rich shares how a severe heart attack on October 15th sidelined him from the pulpit for nearly three months, and how that forced stillness became the crucible for a word from the Lord drawn from Psalm 81: "If you would only inquire of me, open your mouth wide, I would fill it with good things." He also unpacks the story of the Shunammite woman in 2 Kings 4, whose deliberate act of building a small room — furnished with a table (provision), a chair (authority), a lamp (revelation), and a bed (rest) — became the model for how Hope Church is now approaching every staff meeting, planning session, and Sunday service. Rich reflects on a sobering realization after 25 years of ministry: "If God wasn't moving in the service, I would move in the service." That confession sparked a church-wide shift toward unity of Spirit and Word, echoing R.T. Kendall's call to heal "the great divorce" between word and spirit. Rich also serves as a coach with the Spirit and Truth Network of Churches, led by Pastor Lee Cummings out of Kalamazoo, Michigan. Learn more about Hope Church at www.HopeSC.org.
