As you read through the book of Ruth, you won’t find any places where God’s voice thunders down to her as you might in other Bible stories. No earth-shattering miracles, like the Red Sea parting, happen in her life. But what you do see is a common life, shaped by faith, devoted to family, and […]

How do we as modern Christians reconcile that our Lord is not just Jewish, but the […]
