Ruth: Sweet & Bitter Providence

In Ruth we have a picture of God's ideal woman. Faith in God that sees beyond bitter setbacks. Freedom from the securities and comforts of the world. Courage to venture into the unknown and the strange. Radical commitment in the relationships appointed by God. In these four sermons, John Piper asserts that believing in the sovereignty of God and that he loves to work mightily for those who trust him gives a freedom and joy that cannot be shaken by hard times. Like all the other Scriptures, Ruth was written that we might abound in hope (Romans 15:4, 13).
