Lesson eight was the last class of the session, so it was more relaxed.  The class went around and shared their thoughts on the class, what they learned, and what they wanted to learn more about.  We watched videos of Richard Wurmbrand.

We read Romans 5:1-5 (NIV)

“Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have gained access by faith into this grace in which we now stand.  And we boast in the hope of the glory of God.  Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces perseverance; perseverance, character; and character, hope.  And does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.

Then we watched these videos:

Richard Wurmbrand’s message was the perfect way for us to end our class.  Watch his videos to learn why.
