Going Further
Hi Everyone! A couple of ideas for family activities after watching this video:
1) Read Ruth 1-4. ….“and I also know about all the love and kindness you have shown your mother-in-law….. (TLB)
2) Key point. Ruth reminds us that even during dark and seemingly insurmountable circumstances, when doubts about God overwhelm us, God’s love for us is sure.
3) Family Time.
- Locate Moab and Bethlehem on map.
- Lookup definition of gleaning and talk about why there were gleaners.
- Discuss kinsmen redeemers.
- Play “Follow the Leader.”
- Make barley soup and share it with a neighbor.
4) Activities. Have fun using the activities below to emphasize the key points of the scripture.
