Ruth: How's Ruth's Genealogy Ends in the Christmas Story

In this final episode from the Book of Ruth, we will bring Ruth’s story full circle back to Christmas because Ruth's genealogy leads to Christ. For those of you who have listened to all of season 8, the 4 regular episodes and 4 bonus Advent episodes, it is our prayer that the focus of these episodes on hope, love, faith, and joy has given your season memorable meaning. I know I will never celebrate Christmas again without thinking of Naomi, Ruth, and Boaz!Ruth Advent Bonus Episodes: The Book of Ruth is creatively a Christmas Story because the solution to the Israelite's problem, the need for a king, is announced at the end of the Book of Ruth. So, for season 8, the 4 episodes of Ruth will each have a bonus Advent episode that drops on Fridays. There is much meaning to the song O Little Town of Bethlehem and it starts here in the Book of Ruth!Show NotesBlogThe Old Testament BooksBible TimelineContact Bible Book ClubContact Bible Book Club!Scripture quotations taken from The Holy Bible, New International Version®, NIV®.
