Series: Arkansas CFO 2000

Barbara Ann Chase resumes her testimony for the Arkansas CFO in 2000. She starts with the vision of praying in the world’s languages that came with her baptism in the Holy Spirit as a Dominican nun, then moves to the chance meeting in a Seattle department store that opened thirty years of ministry in Scotland. She closes with the Glasgow street boy who later phoned just to say “cheerio.”

Barbara Ann Chase continues her line by line study of Ruth, following her from gleaning in Boaz’s field to the threshing floor and the city gate. There the nearer kinsman hands over his sandal so Boaz can redeem both land and bride. The Bible study was given to the 2000 Arkansas CFO.

At the Arkansas CFO in 2000, Barbara Ann Chase preaches from the book of Jonah, tracing his flight to Tarshish, the storm, and the great fish. She dwells on the worm God appoints to destroy Jonah’s shade plant, using it to show that Jonah’s anger at Nineveh’s mercy cannot outlast the compassion of God.

Barbara Ann Chase closes a session at the 2000 Arkansas CFO with Judges 4, tracing Deborah’s word to Barak and Jael’s killing of Sisera with a tent peg. She then uses Corrie ten Boom’s image of a ringing bell to teach forgiveness as a decision, not just a feeling.

Barbara Ann Chase describes a boy running in with a chocolate chip cookie that confirmed a word of knowledge. She then begins a line by line study of Ruth chapter 1, where Ruth clings to Naomi rather than turning back to Moab. The session was given at the 2000 Arkansas CFO.

Barbara Ann Chase teaches on communion as a sign of Christ’s presence in a message to the Arkansas CFO in 2000. She weaves in the history of hymnals and the widow in 2 Kings 4, who fills borrowed jars with oil until it stops.
