Ordinary People Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

Everybody in this book is ordinary. Obed, the baby who gives the book a happy ending, does not grow up to do anything of significance that we know of. There are no great battles, no miracles, and no profound theological statements in this book. Not one person in this book was above ordinary.

Contributed by Shaila Touchton on Mar 1, 2024

Let us recognize and honor marriage as a divine institution, ordained by God from the beginning. May our understanding of this truth shape our perspective on marriage and our commitment to upholding its sanctity.

Contributed by Ian Du Pisanie on Mar 21, 2012

Ruth: Refugee With A Human Face

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Jun 21, 2021

The Book of Ruth doesn't get much attention, but it can remind us that God sees refugees and can use them in his purposes.
