    This will be our third sermon on the Book of Ruth. We have been talking about Naomi, and how she and her husband made a bad decision to leave the Land of Israel and move to Moab due to a famine that came to Israel.

    We always have to be careful about making decisions, BUT IT IS ESPECIALLY EASY TO MAKE A BAD DECISION DURING DIFFICULT TIMES. Illus: Many people make bad decisions: • In the midst of a MARITAL CRISIS. People get a divorce, but later they live to regret it • In the midst of a CHURCH CRISIS. People ...read more

    The Lord is using all the circumstances to bring forth his salvation history. Through the hand of God Boaz, a “worthy man” is brought into Ruth’s life.

    The Lord uses the unlikely. In Corinth Paul told the believers not many of you were influential or of noble birth when you were called. That was true for Ruth also. She was the furthest thing from nobility, and she had no influence. She was a cursed Moabite woman. Being one of the unlikely ones was ...read more
