The book of Ruth is unique to the Bible for multiple reasons, not the least of which is the example it gives of well-functioning, God-following family. Let's examine the behavior of the major characters in this book to see how God keeps his promises to families as they follow the principles he has laid out. Let's see how we can take their good example and apply it to our families, resting in the knowledge that even when we fall short, the God who was there for Ruth's family is here for you.
