    Ruth And Naomi Series

    Ruth became the great grandmother of King David. She was in the family genealogy of Mary and Jesus. She experienced personal redemption and was part of the greatest redemption story of all history.

    You can’t make this story up. The story of Ruth is way too far-fetched to be manmade. The likely author of the book of Ruth is Samuel, who was a contemporary with Ruth as both lived in the days when judges ruled. There is just no way Samuel would come up with the idea on his own to include Ruth ...read more

    Faith prompted Abram, Ruth and Matthew to step out in obedience to God. The outcome was that they were blessed and became an inspiration to others. May our faith in God be so contagious that many others will be encouraged to put their faith in Jesus.

    We read in Genesis 12:4, When Abram was seventy-five years old, he started out from Haran, as the LORD had told him to do; and Lot went with him. (GNB) Abram believed the words of the Lord who called him, left his country and people to follow after God. The reason for this kind of implicit ...read more

That is correct, but anytime we find something in the Word of God, it is there for a reason. WHAT IS THE REASON GOD PUT THIS FAMILY IN THE SCRIPTURES FOR MOVING? Because it was a ...read more
