Ruth

The characters of the Book of Ruth know all about severe disappointment. Sunday’s teaching hit on those moments of life that seem unfair if not altogether cruel, and how God turns it all around.
The story found in Ruth is one of the most beautiful short stories in all of literature. It has the tension of tragedy and the glory of restoration and redemption. This story is a small version of the biggest narrative of redemption through Jesus. Yet there are many, many lessons to glean from this short story.
