    Mother's Day: Sometimes we feel that mothers are perfect. This message reveals a near-perfect mother. From Naomi, we see a mother’s strength, her love for her children, and we learn some things about a mother’s personality.

    As you already know, today is Mother’s Day. I would like to begin our message with a short story: A small boy invaded the lingerie section of a large department store and shyly presented his problem to a woman clerk. “I want to by a slip as a present for my mom,” he said, “but, I don’t know what ...read more

    Discerning God's Will Series

    Since doing God's will, obeying Him, is central to His blessing, how do we find God's will. Ruth 3 and 4 provide some concrete answers.

    How many of you are familiar with the children’s game, “Red Light, Green Light!” How many of you played it as a child? As I was considering our passage for this morning, Ruth 3, for the first time in many years my memory of having played this game as a young child came to mind. If you’re not ...read more

     | 4,169 views

    What kind of characteristics did Ruth have that caused Boaz to be so amazed? Was he just a silly man captivated by a woman’s beauty? Was this the first woman he had fallen in love with? I do not think so. To understand what is happening here, let us do a series on romantic relationships,

    SERIES: “WOW! WHOSE YOUNG WOMAN IS THAT?” (AN INTRODUCTION – GOD CAN CHANGE YOUR STORY) Ruth 2:1 Now Naomi had a relative on her husband’s side, a man of standing from the clan of Elimelek, whose name was Boaz. 2 And Ruth the Moabite said to Naomi, “Let me go to the fields and pick up the leftover ...read more

    Elimelech (meaning "God is my king") marries Naomi (meaning "sweet one"). A marriage made in heaven. They have 2 kids – Mahlon ("sickly") & Chilion (“wasting away"). Why were 2 sickly kids born to such great couple? Why famine? Marriage is more than kissing...

    Series: Wow! Whose Young Daughter Is That? (Part 4) Where Did Father Elimelech Go Wrong?

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020
     | 2,990 views

    One thing the Book of Ruth tells us is death of Fatherhood and rise of Motherhood. All the men died – all the women lived. In today's society, fatherhood is on the decline. Elimelech wanted the best for his family. But some things went wrong. He resembles many fathers today.

    SERIES: “WOW! WHOSE YOUNG DAUGHTER IS THAT? (PART 4) WHERE DID FATHER ELIMELECH GO WRONG?” 1. Ruth 1:1 Now it came to pass, in the days when the judges ruled, that there was a famine in the land.

    Obedience to the plans of God for our lives can lead us into very tempting situations. Often times, things you desire most will crawl to your door. But always maintain godly integrity even in the midst of lack. Ruth lie at Boaz's feet, but no sex occurred.

     | 2,348 views

    Prejudice causes us to treat others as inferior which is inappropriate for a Christian. The Holy Spirit does not discriminate. God is no respecter of person. Jesus mingled with sinners. For the next of kin to reject Ruth because he did not want to stain his honor was prejudicial.

     | 2,068 views

    Marriage, according to God, is the Covenant Union of a man and a woman for the purpose of committing to one another. It was never meant to be a contract. It was never meant to be a place where we bring our 50% and the other person bring their 50%. It is total commitment.

     | 1,852 views

    The focus of parents should not be just the quantity of children they should have but the quality of children. Parents must not just have children but be ready to sacrifice for them to become vital to society. One child brought up well is better than seven sons ill brought up.

    Message Ruth 1:1-5 “A Dead-End Short Cut”. We have all done it haven’t we. You’re driving to a specific destination and someone says, “I know a shortcut!” Do you really?
