6. The Plot Thickens

It’s not surprising to seek hope from the Bible in hard times, but the book of Ruth in particular might be a surprising choice. Maybe you’re a woman who’s heard about it a dozen times on Mothers Day. Maybe you're a man who’s always seen it as mainly for women. Maybe you’ve always seen it as a guidebook for marriage and dating. Maybe you’ve never really considered it at all. 

Wherever you’re coming from, you are likely to be surprised by what’s really in here. It’s the story of real people living in a terrible time, and it’s God’s way of showing us—not telling us--who he truly is.
