Things are a-changin'
We are currently completing a
major and exciting upgrade to the DCF web site. This
means that there is a lot of new and updated content, a new
design and some useful changes in the background that mean
there will be new features such as live-streaming of our
Sunday morning and Tuesday evening Bible studies, the chance
to watch again online, or download video via podcast.
We have had
some of these changes ready since April 2011, and so we
wanted to get them online as soon as possible. Because
of this there are some pages - such as this one - that are
still being updated/created. We're sorry for any
inconvenience - however we are confident the changes are
worth the wait.
If you cannot access a part of
the web site that you really need, or have any ideas of what
you would like to see - simply send an email to
info@dcf-online.co.uk.
We check email daily, although it may take a couple of days
for a response.
For HIS glory!

Ruth
The introduction below is from
Chuck Smith's Old Testament Study Guide,
available from all good Christian bookshops (contact
DCF
for details):
The story of
Ruth is an appendix to the book of Judges, and occurred when
the Judges were ruling over Israel. It was a time of
spiritual confusion, apostasy, and moral declension. Yet, in
the midst of it all, God was working out His plan in those
hearts and lives that were open to Him.
The book of
Ruth gives insight to how God works His purposes on the
earth, even under adverse circumstances. It shows us the
heart of God, as He desires to reach the whole world, not
just the Jewish people.
We see the
introduction of the kinsman-redeemer, where a close relative
could take over the right of inheritance and redeem it when
the heir was unable. We see this love story serving as a
bright light in a dark time – God preparing a family through
which He could reach out His love for the world to redeem us
to Himself..
