The book of Ruth contains far more about God than its size would suggest; it records experiences of joy and sorrow; it tells a story of home life, romance and marriage, of unexpected conversion and radical consecration.

Here is a vital part of the biblical narrative of redemptive history, focusing like a microscope on part of the detailed preparation God made as he sovereignly directed history towards the coming of the Savior Jesus Christ. This book helps us to understand Christ himself – and, indeed, the whole Bible – more fully and clearly, and teaches us much about God’s grace and providence.

Our 9-week summer study Faithful God — An Exposition of the Book of Ruth will be offered Wednesday evenings and Thursday mornings, beginning June 1st and 2nd. No childcare provided for either study. Call the church office (530.878.0293) to sign up.
