In Deuteronomy 4:15-40, Moses cautions the Israelites against idolatry, reminding them of their unique experience at Mount Sinai where they saw no form but heard God's voice. He emphasizes the importance of adhering to God's laws for their own good and to possess the land promised to their ancestors. Moses' words serve as a poignant reminder of God's omnipresence and the covenant with Israel. In chapter 5, Moses recounts the giving of the Ten Commandments, a covenant between God and the Israelites at Mount Horeb. This reiteration is a call to obedience and a reminder of their special relationship with God, who has chosen them as His people.
Will the Israelites heed Moses' warning and stay true to their covenant with God, or will the allure of idolatry lead them astray?
In Luke 11:5-32, Jesus teaches about the importance of persistence in prayer through the Parable of the Friend at Midnight. He encourages His followers to ask, seek, and knock with the assurance that their Father in Heaven will respond generously. Jesus emphasizes the readiness of God to give good gifts to His children, contrasting earthly parents' willingness to provide for their offspring. Jesus further demonstrates God's power and authority through exorcisms, addressing accusations of collusion with Beelzebul and teaching about the return of an unclean spirit. He underscores the blessedness of hearing and keeping God's word, more than physical ties.
Will the disciples grasp the depth of Jesus' teaching on prayer and the kingdom, persisting in faith and obedience?

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
