Ruth: Courage, Kindness, and Covenant is a journey through one of the most beautiful and surprising books of the Bible. Against the dark backdrop of the time of the Judges, Ruth’s story shines like a lamp of hope — a tale of famine and fullness, of bitterness and blessing, of emptiness and redemption.

In these pages you will discover:

• Courage in Ruth’s decision to leave all she knew and follow Naomi into an uncertain future.
• Kindness in Boaz’s protection and provision, reflecting the heart of God Himself.
• Covenant faithfulness that binds Ruth to Naomi, Boaz to Ruth, and ultimately God to His people.

Each chapter begins with Scripture and a thoughtful quote, followed by teaching, meditation, personal reflection, poetry, questions for study, and prayer. Along the way, Rev. Geoffrey Schmitt weaves in stories from his own ministry — from parish life to Kairos Prison Ministry — showing how Ruth’s story continues to speak with fresh power today.

What begins with famine in Bethlehem ends with the genealogy of David — and points forward to Jesus Christ, the true Redeemer who claims us as His own.N

This study is designed for both personal devotion and group use. It will encourage you to see how ordinary courage, everyday kindness, and steadfast covenant faith can change lives — and how God may be weaving your own story into His greater plan of redemption.
