In this episode of The Tree Church Bible Study, Stacy Crawford, Chris Reed, and Anthony Lombardi continue their study of the book of Ruth with one of its most complex and talked-about passages. Ruth 3:1–9 places Ruth and Boaz in a situation that raises real questions about motives, culture, and character. The hosts work through the ambiguity of Naomi's plan, what Ruth's actions would have communicated in that cultural setting, and why Ruth chose to trust Naomi despite the uncertainty. The conversation lands on a theme that runs throughout the entire book: character holds up even in the most precarious situations. If you have been following along in this study, this is an episode you will not want to miss.
