Mothers: Instruments Of God's Grace

Contributed by Andrew Schroer on May 15, 2001

Through the example of Naomi and Ruth we see the blessings and responsibilities that go along with motherhood, as well as the proper God-pleasing response to our mother’s love.

Today is Mother’s Day, a time to get away from the hustle and bustle of every day life to thank our moms for raising us, for loving us, for putting up with us. The “mother” of Mother’s Day is a woman named Anna Jarvis. Two years after the death of her mother, she convinced her church to have a ...read more

I Will Sing Of My Redeemer Series

Contributed by Pat Cook on May 16, 2005

5th in series on what Pentecost means. This was also a Mother’s Day sermon about the need to have a Redeemer. Ruth had Boaz, we have Jesus, as evidenced by Pentecost.

Galatians 3:10-14 – I Will Sing of My Redeemer Turn with me to the book of Ruth. Today’s message was fairly difficult to bring together. Not because there’s not much to say on Mother’s Day, but rather there is so much to say. We’ve been looking at the holiday of Pentecost. That in itself is ...read more

A Marriage Made Heaven? Series

Contributed by Stephen Smith on Sep 30, 2019

The Old Testament tale of a Love story in which Yahweh, as a spiritual husband, pledges himself in marriage to the nation of Israel. The wedding, recorded in Exodus 19 and 24, takes place at Mount Sinai following Israel's deliverance from Egypt.

The Bible: A Love Story Pt 1: A Marriage made in Heaven? We often refer to the Old Testament scriptures as falling into the category of the 'Old Covenant'. In their turn, the New Testament scriptures are, more properly, referred to as the 'New Covenant' (Jer.31:31; ...read more

Samson: Dealing with Fatal Flaws I love what happens when children retell Bible stories. Here are a few of my favorites: The first three books of the Bible are Genesis, Exodus, and Laxatives. Noah’s wife was called Joan of Ark. Lot’s wife was a pillar of salt by day, but a ball of fire by ...read more

The Character Of A Woman Of Virtue Series

Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Dec 2, 2017

The Proverb 31 is not only about the character of a Godly woman, but wisdom in action. Ruth was called a woman of virtue before she got married as an encouragement to all women. God is looking for the fruit bearing and not charisma.

The Character of a Woman of Strength Text: Proverb 31:10-31 Message: An Excellent Woman The book of Proverb is a very difficult book to draw expository sermon from, because of the didactic or instructive nature and arrangement of the texts. It is also full of parallelism ...read more

Trusting God's Wisdom Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Aug 30, 2021

We we return to God's ways according to God's wisdom and God's Word, God often begins to bless us immediately, as He did for Ruth and Naomi.

A couple of months ago as Jeanie and I were returning from visiting relatives in Southern California, we arrived in Reno at about noon.
