Lots of people have said to me through the week that God really spoke to them through my message on Ruth chapter 3 last Sunday.
The thing that people said spoke to them about my message was this: that the story of Ruth shows us that there is no situation too difficult, no relationship too broken, no life so hopeless, no grief too great, that God cannot bring his healing, hope and breakthrough.
It’s been wonderful that our local newspapers have published a number of stories about our church community over recent months, including this article on our celebration of 15,000 meals cooked in 9 years by our Helping Hand Cafe founder and coordinator, Robert Adams.

During August we as a church are looking at the book of Ruth, the eighth book in the Bible. Our sermon series is called, “Ordinary People. Extraordinary God.” Only four chapters long, the book of Ruth follows a short story during the time of the Judges (around 1100 years before Jesus was born). It was a time when God’s people were constantly turning away from God, when everyone did as they pleased. During this time, there was a famine in the land.
