I’m so excited that you have decided to take this “loosely” guided study through Ruth with me! Several years ago, I begged God to give me a love and a passion for His Word. He answered that prayer, and I have made it my mission to encourage and challenge Christian women to open their Bibles and get to know their Savior.

As I met more and more women through my Bible studies and speaking events, I was told over and over, “I want to study my Bible, but I don’t know how.” As a result, I have started sharing the way I study as my “Simple Bible Study Tips.” The format of this guide is designed with these tips in mind. You will find space for your notes, word study, application, and prayer.

The book of Ruth has a special place in my heart as I spent a lot of time studying it for the latest Bible study, It’s Time (also available on Amazon). Ruth and Naomi each have a chapter devoted to them in that study. You might want to consider using it alongside this guide to enhance your study of the book of Ruth.
