Deeper Faith Follow-Up
 
Open:

Have you ever read a book or watched a movie that left you hanging at the end? Did it left you wondering how it all happened? Explain:

Read: Ruth 4; Joshua 2; Hebrews 11:31
 
Discuss:
1. What part of Ruth left you with more questions than answers? What were the sections that moved you the most?
2. What did Rahab know and believe about the God of Israel? How does Rahab actions compare to our own actions regarding salvation?
3. Describe the importance of the genealogy of Boaz: What do you consider significant about his mother being Rahab the harlot?
4. How do you think Boaz’s mother’s story affected his decisions? What specifics do you see in the Ruth story?

Pray that the story of your life would continually balance your obedience with God’s providence
 
Memorize/ Meditate:
