Redemption isn’t just for a SELECT group, it’s for ALL people.

Ruth 1:8-17

v. 8-9 - Every culture has its own ways of determining an individual’s VALUE.

v. 10-13 - Ruth, Orpah, and Naomi had EVERYTHING taken from them.

v. 14 - Naomi loves Ruth even though she DOESN’T believe.

God wants us to LOVE people who don’t love Him.

Naomi’s love for Ruth changes Ruth.

v. 16-18 - “Your people will be my people and your God MY GOD.”

Boaz is a kinsmen-REDEEMER.

Boaz’s surprising REDEMPTION and Ruth’s surprising COURAGE.

Courage to FOLLOW.
