    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,445 views

    Boaz is the restorer of life, granting Naomi restoration and fullness. Thus does Jesus give life and hope to His own.

    RUTH AND THE RESTORER OF LIFE. Ruth 4. It is beautiful to see the way that the LORD restored the broken line of the clan of Ephrathah. Naomi, whose name means Lovely, renames herself Mara, Bitterness. However, her new name never caught on: she is always called Naomi, and in the end must lift ...read more

    Paul's answer to Gnostic tendencies in the Church.

    THE KNOWLEDGE WE HAVE. Colossians 1:1-14. The Apostle Paul was in prison (Colossians 4:10; Colossians 4:18), probably in Rome.

     | 13,220 views

    We may well find, like Moses, that the answer is already to hand.

    A PLACE OF NO WATER. Exodus 17:1-7. Moses must have been pretty near the end of his tether (Exodus 17:4). After all, the LORD had already heard the cries of His people in their bondage (Exodus 3:7), and sent Moses to them: but it had been all Moses could do to convince them to accept ...read more

    Nurturing our relationship with Jesus is an essential part of our Christian formation.

    1. A FORGIVEN WOMAN’S ACT OF LOVE. Luke 7:36-50. This incident ties in with two earlier episodes, illustrating Jesus’ conquest over sickness (Luke 7:1-10), death (Luke 7:11-17) - and now sin.
