A Woman's Journey Through Ruth: 8 Lessons on Love Exclusively for Women [Paperback]

Dee Brestin (Author)

Book Description

Series: Woman's Journey Through | Publication Date: July 1998

Dee Brestin entreats: Sisters, we must treasure the two Bible books named after women (Ruth and Esther), for they are God's special gifts to us! Through Ruth, I have heard my Heavenly Father say,

As Boaz was to Ruth, I am your Kinsman-Redeemer. Come to Me, let Me cover you, protect you, provide for you, and love you.

You do not have to be wealthy, or famous, or male to be of value. Ruth made an enormous difference and became as precious to Naomi as seven sons.

Some say women's friendships are shallow and catty. Some say relationships with mothers-in-law are impossible. My little Book of Ruth is a tribute to the redemptive love I can unleash through women.

This guide is one of a series written by Dee especially with the interests of women, and the way they like to relate, in mind.

Dee Brestin ministers to the hearts of women with her speaking and writing. Besides her many Bible study guides, she is the author of the bestsellers The Friendships of Women, The Friendships of Women Workbook, and We Are Sisters. She and her husband, Steve, are the parents of five children and live in Kearney, Nebraska.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love all her studies, August 7, 2007

This review is from: A Woman's Journey Through Ruth: 8 Lessons on Love Exclusively for Women (Paperback)

This study was really one of the best. It really takes a look at the mother-in-law/daughter-in-law relationship, and teaches a lot. I've been more compassionate and loving toward my mother-in-law as a result of going through this study. I just have to remind myself of how Ruth treated her mother-in-law. She is, after all, the woman who raised my wonderful husband!
