Ruth Session 5
September 30, 2021 • Ruth 3
Ruth and Boaz have a private meeting on the threshing floor. Ruth proposes to Boaz, and the two make plans to get married... as soon as Boaz is able to dot the i's and cross the t's when it comes to another relative who has "first dibs" on the right to redeem Ruth and Naomi.
Ruth Session 3
September 16, 2021 • Bryan Fojtasek • Ruth 2:1–16
In Ruth 2:1-16, Ruth sets out to glean in the fields of a kind and generous farmer. She doesn't know exactly who she'll find, but she's hoping it'll be someone who offers her grace. Through God's providential hand, Ruth ends up in the field of Boaz, a wealthy landowner who is more generous to Ruth than anyone would have expected. His kindness is an example of the grace God gives all of us when we are at rock bottom.
