From Broken to Blessed is an in-depth Bible study on the book of Ruth, a literary gem tucked away in the pages of the Old Testament between Judges and First Samuel.
This devotional study invites you into the world of Naomi and Ruth, to witness the ups and downs of their lives, God’s purposes within them, and their unexpected journey from a place of brokenness to blessing. The events of the story take place during one of Israel’s bleakest periods. Yet Naomi and her family faced challenges and temptations that are all too familiar to us in the 21st century, and the lessons Ruth teaches are as important and relevant to us now as when this tale was first written. Questions encouraging you to read, reflect, and respond each day will train you to focus on God’s character and intentions in a transformative way, spurring you on to experience for yourself the rest that comes from surrendering to God’s better story for your life. The study includes meditations on the following themes:- Suffering, grief, and hope
- God’s love and sovereignty
- The meaning of identity
- Surrender and rest
- Relationships God’s way
- Grace and second chances
- Redemption and restorationFrom Broken to Blessed is a 28-day devotional Bible study of Ruth, suitable for use by individuals and for group discussions. The author is the wife of a Baptist pastor and the mother of four children. She and her husband serve together in Ruzomberok, Slovakia. Follow Laura’s blog at underaslovaksky.wordpress.com
