The first two meetings we had went well. Our attendance doubled in the course of one week. Josh and I figure that at this rate we'll have 300 people at our next meeting!! (kidding) We did have a good time tough.
Josh walked us through the Book of Ruth and shared from Genesis on Tamar and Judah. The take-away was seeing just how God has used dysfunctional and sinful people to establish the line of Christ. Christ didn't just descend from a pure Israel line as we saw with Ruth and Tamar. God used so-called "pagan people" to have a part in the redemption story. It's almost a foreshadowing of Gentile conversion in the New Testament.
Our next study will be held Dec. 5th in Laurel at 7pm. We look forward to seeing you then.
