After sending my daughter to Tennessee to begin her new journey of life I found myself on the struggle bus. Then I remembered we hadn’t finished Luke 2 which talks about Mary and Joseph dedicating Jesus and raising Him. I found comfort in them navigating being parents and found some similarities that eased my parental fears. I am thankful for God including their moments that help us as we go through ours.

You might have said goodbye to “2023” but let’s not dismiss it so quickly. Could it be there are valuable things we learned that will help us as we enter “2024”? Not convinced? Well let’s dive in and see!

We have all read the Christmas story but knowing some behind the scene facts may help us appreciate this account in scripture a little more. May you be blessed as we dive into the story of His birth. From us to you…. We wish you a very Merry Christmas.

After being bamboozled I’ve been pretty sensitive to people telling the truth. Luke gets me. He starts of Luke Chapter 1 with telling us that he himself has carefully investigated everything that he is about to tell us. The story leading up to Jesus birth and His birth are actual events! I’m here for it! Join in on his account of our Savior’s birth!

This is our 150th episode recorded and produced! We celebrate that despite the fact we received information that made us have to pull one of our past episodes. This was an extremely hard episode to do but in keeping with what we believe our purpose is we felt we needed to expose a lie. Our hope is that despite that lie we see Jesus and are reminded that He is truth even when man lies. We are diving deep so take a deep breathe and let’s go.

As sad as I am to wrap up this series on Ruth I am excited to bring it all together. We will see God’s hand in the history of this story and the correlation of Boaz being Ruth’s kinsmen-redeemer to Jesus being ours.

Ruth 3 sure doesn’t disappoint. We can learn from Ruth’s willingness to be a hard worker. Naomi’s perspective changing which caused a shift in attitude. Believing without seeing which Jesus says is blessed and honorable. Naomi’s wisdom on how Ruth should approach Boaz and Boaz’s response to Ruths request! Be ready to learn along the way!

In this episode we wrap up Ruth 1 and move right into Ruth 2 where we find Naomi and Ruth return to Bethlehem. We will learn about humbleness, taking responsibility, God’s orchestration, a good name, kindness, attitudes, being satisfied and so much more!

I never thought the story of Ruth was the most interesting one I’ve ever read about. That quickly changed as I started to dive in and gleaned so much just from the first couple of verses. Now I’m obsessed with what we can learn and apply to our lives! Can’t wait for you to fall in love with this book of the Bible as well.

If you're anything like me you like to watch a good show. What does every show have? Episodes! Well the book of Proverbs in the Bible has some as well. It’s a book of wisdom to help instruct us on how to live with others and with God. No matter our spiritual maturity level we could all glean from knowledge, wisdom and understanding. Let’s get into these episodes!
