1 John 3:10-18 In this lesson, we explore the profound concept of true Christianity, emphasizing the importance of sacrificial love and service to our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Ruth 3:1-18; Ruth 4:1-22 Can God restore a broken soul? This isn’t just a thought-question. For most of us have, at some point or another, felt this feeling of abandonment and brokenness.

Matthew 6:19-34 How ought we to live? Where should we place our treasure? Join us as we consider the next set of mini-parables of our Lord from the Sermon on the Mount.

They were so focused on the “show”—praising those who could miraculously speak in tongues—in foreign languages they’d never practiced or studied—and failed to show love for one another.
