31 Days of Gleaning with Ruth: Questioning my way through a famine season Kindle Edition

See all formats and editions
Ruth and Naomi, grief-stricken after the loss of their menfolk, chose together to embark on a brave journey away from a place of despair toward a land of promise. Times have changed, especially for women, since the time of the Judges. Yet, we all have encountered or will face loss, grief, and uncertainty in our lives.

How do we, as women, overcome fear and anxiety when facing an uncertain future? What is a kinsman redeemer? How does faith, or doubt, play a role in finding your footing? Is it even possible in the midst of darkness to give thanks to God and proclaim that He is good? Let’s question our way through 31 days to see if we can find the Kinsman Redeemer, and in turn, find hope for the future.

The author uses a devotional style to compare and contrast the lives of ancient people, Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz, with stories from her own modern life. Relationships are a key topic of this 31-day study through the Old Testament book of Ruth. The book of Ruth, though an ancient text, holds many valuable truths for navigating the joys and the heartaches of life. While God is not highlighted as a main character in this short book, the timeless values leading one to faith in a redeemer shine forth as a ray of hope for all to enjoy.

This book can be read simply for the stories, and as a daily devotional pause for your day. However, for the Bible study enthusiast who wants to dig deeper, each daily ends with questions and scripture on which to ponder.

I am an avid storyteller and I have been learning to be an author for the last five years. I have written stories in some format or another for most of my life. Now, I regularly post my stories on my blog (www.lisabrittain.com). Me and my dear man, Randy, have been married for 35 years. Together we reside in the desert of Southern California along with our zany rescue pups. My true passions are Jesus, family, coffee, writing, and hearing the life stories of everyday people. Sometimes I enjoy sewing, gardening, and pickleball.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful, Insightful Devotional

I bought this ebook back in 2018 and am finally reading it this summer as a devotional each morning while I am out of school. It has been such a refreshing and uplifting insight into the book of Ruth. I feel I have not only learned new insight but have grown in my faith. I enjoyed the personal applications the author shared as well.

This book is so much more than just a quick look at the story of Ruth! The author has let God bring the story of Ruth into our everyday lives, by looking at the historical context and then setting parallel Scriptures from the Bible next to Ruth's story. Each chapter closes with thought-provoking questions that bring the reader right into God's heart for them too. A closing prayer at the end of each chapter gives pause to let the words sink in more deeply.

31 Days is an excellent devotional. I'm on Day 30. I've taken it slowly - using the ponder questions in my time with God. 31 Days draws you into conversation with Jesus. It's been amazing how timely each devotional has been in my life. I think others would be blessed to get this book, grab a Bible, a journal and a pen and expect to encounter a Living God on your spiritual journey.

I love this devotional! Each day the author gives you a word to focus on as you go through the scripture. It closes with thought provoking questions that you can use in your prayer time. It really helps me apply scripture to my daily life! I loved it so much I bought several more for gifts for family and friends!

“Jesus, Jesus I am resting, in the joy of who YOU are.” This is the song in my heart as I have studied dear Ruth through this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hope and Redemption and So Much More
Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2018
The quintessential Bible story of hope and redemption - the story of Ruth. Brittain does so much more than just tell the Bible story she spices it up with real life questions and brings relevancy into every chapter. A great 31-day devotional with excellent book club possibilities. Anyone going through a "dry" season or a hard season needs to read and ponder this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Real. Vulnerable. Beautiful.
Reviewed in the United States on February 2, 2018
Life is hard. God is good. 31 Days of Gleaning With Ruth reminds us so beautifully of this truth. The author is real. Vulnerable. Honest. Her unique approach to the book of Ruth will undoubtedly draw you closer to the heart of God, who longs to love you, to be known by you, and to show you who you are. I highly recommend this devotional.
