Whoever is wise, let him understand these things;    whoever is discerning, let him know them;for the ways of the Lord are right,    and the upright walk in them. . . — Hosea 14:9 When I began to study Hosea, I knew that I would discover treasures of God’s love and mercy in this portion of his holy, … Continue reading The Bewildering Magnificence of the Gospel

Like Adam

May 12, 2021May 3, 2021 ~ Barbaranne Kelly ~ Leave a comment

And you, who were dead in your trespasses …, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands.

Striving For Peace

August 17, 2020 ~ Barbaranne Kelly ~ Leave a comment

Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about peace. Rather, I’ve been lamenting the lack of peace that seems to be rending not only our nation and world in some very visible ways, but especially situations closer to home which are breaking my heart and the hearts of people I love. I find myself praying in … Continue reading Striving For Peace

Hosea Summary and Conclusion

February 12, 2020 ~ Barbaranne Kelly ~ Leave a comment

Originally posted December 7, 2019, at Women of Purpose. How can I summarize this study of the book of Hosea?
