Read Ruth Chapter 4


Discuss the takeaways:

  • When you are tempted to be bitter at God, believe He’s doing something better than you can imagine. 

  • What seems like your “happenstance” is really God’s providence

  • When you’re restless for relationships, find your true rest in God

  • Just as Ruth was redeemed through Boaz, you can be redeemed through Jesus


Questions for greater discussion

  2. Consider Genesis 49:10

  3. How does the happy ending of the story of Ruth give you hope in the midst of a difficult situation?

  4. Consider 2 Timothy 2:13

  5. What do you think it means practically to find rest in God? (You can take a peek at Exodus 33:14 here if you like)

  6. What are some ways your story is like Ruth? How has Christ redeemed your life?

  7. Ruth humbled herself by submitting at the feet of Boaz. How might that be an analogy for our posture at the feet of Christ? Consider Luke 10:38-42 in this discussion.
