This six-session LifeGuide® Bible Study of Ruth we meet not only Ruth herself but also other significant players who populate the drama: Naomi, Elimelech, Mahlon, Kilion, Orpah, and Boaz. In addition there are other unnamed characters; kinsman, reapers, elders, and neighbors. Like us, each of these characters in their own way needs the Redeemer who is foreshadowed here.

- A guide to getting the most out of the study, including suggestions for how to participate in individual or group study.

- Leader's notes for preparation and leading a group through the study.

- "Now or Later" section following each session to help you act on what you learn.

- Trustworthy biblical wisdom from experienced authors.
