I’ve been scouting the land ahead to see what lies before us before we all travel down and begin our study on the book of Ruth. As I mentioned before, I’ve never done a personal study on the book of Ruth before so I wanted a general idea of the layout of the land so […]
I’ve spent the past few days gathering information on Ruth, trying to get a general overview of the book and a feel for the upcoming study. I have been looking forward to this study since we drew it’s name out of the basket. It’s a book I’ve read several times, and read several studies on, […]
We are condemned to salvation through the Cross of Christ. – Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest, Feb. 2nd This one sentence stood out to me as I was reading, “we are condemned to salvation.” Condemned to salvation, it sounded so ironic when I first read it.

I have told the glad news of deliverance in the great congregation; behold, I have not restrained my lips, as you know, O LORD I have not hidden your deliverance within my heart; I have spoken of your faithfulness and your salvation; I have not concealed your steadfast love and your faithfulness from the great […]
O SOURCE OF ALL GOOD, What shall I render to Thee for the gift of gifts? Thine own dear Son, begotten, not created, My Redeemer, Proxy, Surety, Substitute, His self-emptying incomprehensible, His infinity of love beyond the heart’s grasp.
