There are No Accidents with God

Part 2

Romans 2 introduces us to Ruth and Boaz. The question surrounding the love story of Ruth and Boaz is… did all of this just happen by accident, fate or of God? Even when it appears God is silent, He is still working!

We are Part of Something Bigger than Ourselves

June 2, 2024 • Mason Adair • John 14:1–3, Ruth 4

The book of Ruth wants to teach us that God's purpose for the life of his people is to connect us to something far greater than ourselves. God wants us to know that when we follow him, our lives always mean more than we think they do. For the Christian there is always a connection between the ordinary events of life and the eternal work of God in history. Everything we do in obedience to God, no matter how small, is significant.

Living A Life of Honor Matters to God

May 26, 2024 • Mason Adair • Daniel 1:8, Romans 12:2, Psalm 37:7, Ruth 3, Psalm 119:11

In Ruth 3, Naomi and Ruth are running out of time. The harvest is just about over and Boaz will be returning home. He obviously is not making a move, so Naomi comes up with a plan of her own to get Ruth and Boaz married. It turns out to not be the greatest advice, but it works because Boaz had a great amount of honor and integrity. There is a lot we can learn from the two of them in this situation. When Boaz acted with integrity, he was declaring that God was in control and He would provide.

The Best is Yet to Come

May 12, 2024 • Mason Adair • Genesis 50:20, Romans 8:28, Ruth 1, Judges 21:25, Leviticus 26:3–4

We all face loss, tragedy and hardship. These tragedies and hard times can lead to bitterness, isolation and a feeling that God has abandoned us. The first chapter of Ruth shows us how God is working things out in ways we cannot even imagine. We just need to patiently trust Him.
