Arthur Sara: August 2020

This week we look at Elisha and Naaman. Arthur begins with God's mysterious way and 2 Kings 5:1-5.

He would cure him of his leprosy." 4 Naaman went to his master and told him what the girl from Israel had said. 5 "By all means, go," the king of Aram replied. "I will send a letter to the king of Israel." So Naaman left, taking with him ten talents of silver, six thousand shekels of gold and ten sets of clothing.
