In this episode, Greg and Nathan kick off their journey through Ruth with Chapter 1 — a story that begins in famine and tragedy but ends with a glimmer of hope. Nathan reads the chapter aloud, then leads Greg through a thoughtful discussion on what’s really happening beneath the surface: how Ruth’s loyalty shines in dark times, how Naomi’s bitterness reflects deep grief, and how even in loss, God’s providence is quietly at work.

Key Themes:

Faithfulness in the midst of suffering

God’s hidden hand in hard seasons

Ruth’s bold commitment to Naomi and to God

The first signs of redemption at the barley harvest

Listen in as Greg and Nathan remind us that even when life feels empty, God is still writing a story of redemption.
