The book of Ruth illustrates the long-reaching effects of our decisions, both good and bad. When famine struck the village of Bethlehem Judah, Elimelech moved his family to the wicked, pagan country of Moab. His choice set in motion a decade of sickness, sorrow, and death. In part 2 of the series “Bread In Bethlehem”, we are warned about the Choices That Condemn Us to suffering and regret.

Is there any Old Testament scripture more commonly quoted than Jeremiah 29:11? “For I know the plans I have for you…” Watch Let The Bible Speak as our guest speaker, Jonathan Edwards, places this scripture in his proper context.
Is it a given that those who read the bible will “understand it differently?” There is so much division over what the bible supposedly teaches that the modern mantra is “there are many interpretations of scripture.” Is this true?
