Teaching Session #5 - 12 November 2017

The book of Ruth
Main speaker - Tim Barrow
Leader for the evening - Bernie Pinner

        

 Tim writes:


“The book of Ruth, written at the time of King David or Solomon, is a story drawn from the period of Judges which speaks to our contemporary issues with timeless godly truth and application. A drama, set in troubled times when, '....everyone did as he saw fit in his own eyes', it tells of a refugee family fleeing hardship, and how Ruth, a migrant lady, is used of God to affect both local community and eternity with an unusual infusion of Christ-like love and loyalty. 
 
Obviously, it would be good if anyone coming could read the four short chapters in preparation...
