What does God do when His people face famine, loss, and bitter disappointment? In this Bible study, Rev. David Buchs walks through the Book of Ruth, showing how God quietly but powerfully works redemption through faithfulness, mercy, and promise-keeping—even in dark and uncertain times.

Taught on the Feast of the Holy Innocents, this study connects Ruth’s story to Psalm 2, the reign of Christ the true King, and the way God reverses the ancient curses of hunger and barrenness through His saving work. From Bethlehem’s famine to Boaz the redeemer, the story ultimately leads us forward to King David—and to Christ Himself.
