The Book Of Ruth | The Kinsman-Redeemer
Shared on: Feb 20, 2017
As we move toward Good Friday we enter a time of repentance, soul searching, and identification with Christ's humility. Beyond fasting and prayer, what does this identification look like in the day to day? What examples does Scripture give us of someone seeking to identify with God in humility? Christ's distant great-grandmother, Ruth, was a woman of deep faithfulness, courage, and humility. Her life invites us in and offers us visual lessons of what it looks like for a life to humbly identify with God.
