Book of Ruth

Book of Ruth: A Tale of Great Loves by Sr. Kathleen Glavich, SND 

How did a worshipper of Chemosh land on the family tree of Jesus? How did she become the paragon of faithful love to this day? The biblical story of Ruth is a classic. Using imagination and what is known about Ruth's times, Sister Kathleen expanded this four-page tale in her novel Book of Ruth, a Tale of Great Loves. In the book you meet the loyal Ruth, an immigrant; Naomi, her mother-in-law, whose faith is sorely tried; and Boaz, who opens his heart to the foreigner Ruth and Naomi and rescues them from poverty. God's never-ending love for his people is the dominant theme.
