The conclusion of the book of Ruth - a powerful story of God's mercy in the midst of seemingly hopeless times and great suffering.
Dayne Batten looks at Ruth 3 where we continue to see the godly character and overwhelming kindness of Ruth and Boaz on display. Their steadfast love for those around them challenges us to follow their example, encourages us that God can accomplish great things through our everyday faithfulness, and gives us a beautiful picture of Messiah Jesus, our redeemer.
Pastor Doug looks at chapter 2 of Ruth.

The Christ Paul writes about in Colossians is to have preeminence in everything. He is God and every thought is to be brought into submission to Him. Yet this 2000-year-old letter is not only one of warning but one of encouragement, with much practical advice for living faithfully, both in Paul’s words and in his example.
Kidnapped! A scary and potentially deadly experience, to say the least. We teach our children and grandchildren to beware of strangers and warn against being taken advantage of when online. Yet, do we consider the threat of being kidnapped by spurious philosophies? Do we really consider how embracing certain ways of thinking will actually “kidnap” us and bring us and our children into spiritual and physical danger? Paul warned the church in Colossae, “See to it that no one takes you captive (kidnapped) by philosophy and empty deceit”— the “isms” of our modern-day rather than according to Christ.

The lesson explores how the stories of scripture we've looked at during this course interact and overlap with each other and bump up against other biblical themes in the process. We'll start to see that the story of the Bible is one big story, the story of our savior, with hundreds of little stories all woven into it to give it its depth and meaning. Finally, we'll talk about the story of the great commission. God's blessing and commission for his people have always been to be fruitful and multiply and to take his kingdom to the ends of the earth. And now the church, God's new creation people, is in the process of carrying that out by telling the story of Messiah Jesus.
This lesson follows the story of the King from God’s covenant with David all the way to Revelation. God promised King David that his offspring would be to God as a son and that he would reign on the throne forever. It did not take long for the psalmists and prophets to figure out that God was talking about something more than just an earthly king. He was talking about the Messiah, the literal Son of God, King Jesus. This week, we’ll unpack some promises and prophecies about a coming messianic king, and see how they’re fulfilled in Jesus as he sets up his kingdom through his life, death, and resurrection.
This lesson is focused on the Sabbath. In scripture, the Sabbath not only represents God’s seventh-day rest at the end of creation, but also the Exodus, the promised land, and God’s bountiful provision for his people. And it all points forward to Jesus, our true Sabbath rest, who begins a new creation, frees us from our bondage to sin, gives us bountiful spiritual provision, and promises us a new, eternal promised land.
This lesson dives into scriptures regarding the Temple and how it points to Jesus.
This lesson focuses on how the Bible tells the whole story of God's relationship with his people as the story of a faithful groom loving, wooing, and redeeming his unfaithful bride. The lesson starts with some passages from the prophets, takes an unexpected look at Jesus' conversation with the woman at the well, and finishes with the final arrival of the bride of the Lamb in Revelation.
This lesson explores the Sermon on the Mount as a literary work and illustrates that every detail in the Bible is important and points to Christ.
