The riveting Old Testament narratives of Esther and Ruth feature women and men who act boldly and ultimately receive God’s blessing. Does God help those who help themselves? Actually, he helps those who don’t deserve it! See how our gracious God used embittered, compromised, and fearful people to rescue his own and to prepare them for Christ’s coming. Designed for groups and individuals, this Reformed Expository Bible Study gives users the resources they need to delve into God’s Word and understand and apply it for themselves, leading to biblical transformation. Background information and commentary lay the groundwork before readers observe and analyze the Scripture text. Each of the thirteen lessons makes connections to the rest of the Bible and to Reformed theology before concluding with a section for personal application and a prayer prompt.
