A DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT: "Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God" (Ruth 1:16). A beautiful text often used at weddings, yet it is more about family relationships. As we remember the Old Testament matriarch, Ruth, on this date, we see her faithfulness, loyalty, and kindness. She is a model of faith and the great grandmother of King David and, ultimately, Jesus, the Messiah, was her descendent (Matthew 1:16-17).

Proverbial Summer, Week 6

A Message from Pastor Maschke | 7.9.2026

A DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT: Stephen Langton died on this date in 1228. Who is he? He was a preacher, scholar and theologian at the University of Paris and later the Archbishop of Canterbury. While serving in Paris he developed the system of chapter divisions, something that others had done in the past in local settings, yet Langton's system caught on and is what we still use today. Evidence of this is in Martin Luther's Catechisms, where he refers to chapters, but not verses. We can thank God for Langton and his legacy as we read our Bibles and share the Good News.
