    Ministry to the poor, the orphan, and the widow is about joining the work of God in his favorite field. Meaning and satisfaction in life don’t come from striving, it comes from loving. The gospel message is a message of love. Loving God means loving peop

    Ask yourself two profound questions: Why did God kill Mahlon for marrying Ruth? Why didn’t God kill Boaz for marrying Ruth? It took two husbands to bring God’s grace to Ruth. Jesus is both the Son of Man and the Son of God!

    “My two husbands!” Introduction: Most born again Christians are living much likened unto Ruth when she first came into the promise land. She knew that she was a part of the family of Israel because of her marriage to Mahlon, but she had not yet assessed her full potential. Instead of living in a ...read more

    Third in a four-part series from Ruth. Ruth in faith requests that Boaz take her as his wife. She models for us the sort of risks God will ask us to take if we press out in faith, knowing His character.

    Trinity Baptist Church June 24, 2007 Ruth: God redeems A bold request Ruth 3:1-18 Marriage proposals come in all shapes and varieties. From the stories I’ve heard, many proposals don’t happen soon enough for one or the other person in the relationship! I have to admit -- before ...read more

    God directs our paths and turns our trials into blessings; He works behind the scenes in Ruth chapter two. Ruth doesn't despair but gets to work.

    The tragic atmosphere of Ruth chapter one changes dramatically in chapter two. In the opening verses we see Ruth undaunted by her plight. She could have chosen Naomi’s despair and bitterness, but instead she looks to God’s provision as she heads for the fields. Ruth wasn’t a ...read more

    Ruth has given up everything from her pagan past and has cast herself completely on the God of Israel. She is truly, in the words of verse 11, a “woman of noble character.”

    “Pain is inevitable; misery is optional.” We learn from the Book of Ruth how to overcome bitterness and emptiness through a steadfast faith. Ruth chose a pathway that changed her life and the course of history. We’re not sure how much time has transpired between chapters 2 & ...read more

    In four short chapters we move from tragedy to triumph, from despair to joy, from emptiness to fullness. This book begins with famine and funerals, and concludes with a wedding and the joyful birth of a son.

    The final chapter of this quiet drama takes place before the town gate of Bethlehem, where all important transactions were conducted. Here is where the matter of Ruth the foreigner would be settled. After the late-night rendezvous of chapter 3, Boaz goes right to work; he finds his kinsman and ...read more
