  • 1198: Honorable // Win ‘em Like Wilberforce 08 (Eric Ludy)
    2024/12/23

    William Wilberforce was used by God to change the world. Many historians recognize the impact of his life, but fail to see the real reason why his life was so deeply impacting. They see qualities like perseverance, determination, and extraordinary compassion as the catalyst to his greatness. But though those qualities were essential to the make-up of the man, the true power of William Wilberforce goes much deeper than that. Wilberforce was a godly man and that was his great secret. He was a wholly honest and trustworthy person who genuinely loved all people and desired them to be free to live in liberty. The honorable nature of this man still reverberates in and through history two hundred years later.

  • 1197: Topsy Turvy (Ruth 4:11–17) // The Book of Ruth 07 (Nathan Johnson)
    2024/12/19

    As the book of Ruth nears its end, everything appears to be topsy-turvy. Boaz gets the girl, Naomi gets a son, a Moabitess is blessed by Israelites, and the nanny is cared for by the child. Despite the appearance of everything being upside-down and a bit backwards, the mercy, providence, and love of God is front and center. Join Nathan in this study of Ruth 4:11–17 and see how even topsy-turvy circumstances can lead us unto Christ Jesus.

  • 1196: Ready or Not // Win ‘em Like Wilberforce 07 (Eric Ludy)
    2024/12/16

    Readiness is a vastly underrated quality of the healthy Christian life. But, readiness doesn’t come about accidentally. A believer needs to practice and train in readiness. And if it isn’t practiced, then the believer will be found unready in the moment where alertness, action, and agreement is desperately needed. The quality of readiness is one of the beautiful hallmarks of William Wilberforce’s life. And it is one of the chief reasons why his life impacted the world.

  • 1195: Relative Redemption (Ruth 4:1–11a) // The Book of Ruth 06 (Nathan Johnson)
    2024/12/12

    Throughout the book of Ruth, we encounter the concept of a “kinsman redeemer,” but few of us understand the importance and profundity of this redemption by a relative. In this message, Nathan explains the concepts of kinsman redeemer and the Levirite Marriage—showing how they help us understand Ruth 4:1–11 as well as point to our precious Savior, Jesus Christ—THE Kinsman Redeemer.

  • 1194: Craving a Clapham // Win ‘em Like Wilberforce 06 (Eric Ludy)
    2024/12/09

    What would it be like if we as the Church of Jesus were to put aside our differences and, instead, cherish our common faith in our amazing Savior? This was Christ’s vision, His passion, His great desire. But, for some reason, we, as His Church, have greatly struggled to make this our vision, passion, and desire. William Wilberforce discovered the beauty of this spiritual unity in his work with the Clapham community back in the early 19th century. And the unity they shared sponsored one of the greatest and most transformative works of grace in the past two thousand years.

  • 1193: Profound Pinions and Promises (Ruth 3:6–18) // The Book of Ruth 05 (Nathan Johnson)
    2024/12/05

    As Ruth approaches Boaz in the dead of night, what began as a potentially sketchy and dangerous plan became a blessing and profound promise from Boaz. In this message from Ruth 3:6–18, we explore the threshing floor (a place of suffering and redemption), four significant concepts for what it means to be covered by wings (pinions), and the restless pursuit of a kinsman redeemer for his bride.

  • 1192: Rocky Road, Please // Win ‘em Like Wilberforce 05 (Eric Ludy)
    2024/12/01

    The Christian life is a bit counter-intuitive at first (ie. the least is the greatest, the servant is the leader, and weakness is a place of strength). It takes a bit for the newly budded Christian to grasp such an upside down pattern, but when it’s finally grasped, the path opens up for great spiritual growth and maturity. This message focuses on the arduous year of 1793 in Great Britain—a year of war, famine, and economic instability—and it showcases how difficulty can actually be a good thing—a tremendously beneficial thing when embraced and received with faith.

  • 1191: The Sketchy Scheme (Ruth 3:1–5) // The Book of Ruth 04 (Nathan Johnson)
    2024/11/28

    Throughout Ruth 1–2, God has been at work, seemingly behind the scenes. Naomi has seen His hand move and how He has orchestrated things to this point; God has not forsaken His hesed (lovingkindness). Yet Boaz is not moving things forward with Ruth even though it has been a couple months. In a “last chance” effort, since the harvest is nearly finished and Ruth will no longer be going to Boaz’s field, Naomi takes things into her own hands and crafts a sketchy scheme to make something happen. Join Nathan in this study of Ruth 3:1–5 as we investigate Naomi’s “sketchy scheme” and how it points to our response to Christ and His work upon the cross.
