RUTH: POVERTY AND PLENTY
By Tim Chester
The Good Book Company. 32 pages. £3.00
ISBN 978-1-90556-491-0

This guide enables individuals or groups to study Ruth in four sessions.

The chapters are a manageable length and the format clear. It is straightforward enough for young Christians to follow, but deep enough for the mature to benefit from. It has all the usual ingredients such as talk-about ice-breaker, investigation, exploration and application questions. There is also a helpful leader’s guide at the back. What sets it apart from others is that each chapter has lots of useful background information. The guide states that the aim in each session is to ‘uncover the meaning of a passage and see how it fits into the big picture of the Bible’. It does that well.
