"Faiths Sweet Fragrance"

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on May 25, 2015

When no one else would offer her hope...she somehow had heard about the hope that Jesus could not only offer but extend to her as well. And that amazing hope and the story of the gospel took seed in her life and begin to grow…

From Sweet To Bitter

Contributed by Rodelio Mallari on Apr 13, 2011

Though this book is, for the most part, about the main character (Ruth), let us also observe how this story unfolds for a second character, another woman named Naomi – Ruth’s mother-in-law. We shall look at four reasons why Naomi went from sweet to bitter
