The Book of Ruth | Where to Go When Everything Falls Apart

In the opening message of our new series through Ruth, we look at the difficult decision Elimelech made to leave Bethlehem in search of something better — a choice that ultimately led his family into loss and hardship. Through Naomi and Ruth’s story, we’re faced with a powerful question: what do you do when the place God called you to feels empty, and somewhere else looks more promising?This message encourages us to stay rooted, move with wisdom, seek God in prayer, and lead with honor in every season. Even in the middle of loss, we see God’s faithfulness as Ruth and Naomi return at the start of harvest — a reminder that God knows how to prepare a place of provision and blessing right when we need it most.
