Ruth's story is what happens when ordinary people faithfully follow an extraordinary God. In this powerful message, speaker Tina Huff walks through the Book of Ruth and show us how both Ruth and Boaz built their reputations through integrity, faithfulness, humility, and obedience to God.
Guest speaker Kathryn Stewart takes a fresh look at the story of Martha—a woman many of us can relate to. Martha loved Jesus deeply, yet the weight of responsibilities, expectations, and the pressure to keep everything together left her distracted and overwhelmed. Jesus didn't rebuke Martha for her strengths, her hard work, or her desire to serve. Instead, He lovingly invited her to step away from the pressure that was stealing her peace and drawing her away from simply being with Him.
In this powerful message, guest speaker Celia Valenzuela takes us through the story of Mary Magdalene standing outside the empty tomb. She was overwhelmed by grief and searching for Jesus, yet she didn't recognize Him even when He was standing right in front of her. Through Mary's encounter we are reminded that our circumstances can sometimes cloud our vision, but even when we cannot see Him, Jesus is near. He sees us, knows us by name, and meets us right where we are.
Guest speaker Tamrae Decker takes us through the story of Abigail from 1 Samuel 25. Faced with the foolish actions of her husband and the anger of a mighty warrior, Abigail chose wisdom, humility, and courage. Through her actions, God used one woman to rebuke two men and bring peace where conflict was about to erupt. Abigail's story reminds us that doing the right thing is not always easy, but God honors those who walk in wisdom and humility.
