About this listen

Two women. All alone. With no provisions. Can they find hope in a foreign land?

Ruth leaves her home with a barren womb and an empty future after losing her husband. She forsakes her abusive parents and follows the woman she has grown to love as a true parent, her late husband's mother, Naomi.

Ruth arrives in Israel with nothing to recommend her but Naomi's love. She is destitute, grief-stricken, and unwanted by the people of God. But God has great plans for her. While everyone considers Ruth an unworthy outsider, she is shocked to find the owner of the field—one of the wealthiest and most honored men of Judah—is showing her favor.

Long since a widower and determined to stay that way, Boaz finds himself irresistibly drawn to the foreign woman with the dark, haunted eyes. He tells himself he is only being kind to his cousin Naomi's chosen daughter when he goes out of his way to protect her from harm, but his heart knows better.

Obstacles. Heartache. Withered dreams. How can God forge love, passion, and new hope between two such different people?

Seeing the possible story of Ruth in such details was thought provoking and gave a deeper insight on what the characters were experiencing as they journeyed through life. The reader could identify with each character’s life, feelings, and beliefs yet at the same time came to the conclusion that faith and trust in God was essential.

This was a decent book. I did not enjoy it as I had with several other books written by Ms. Afshar.
The beginning was depressing, sad then it began to pick up. Parts of the book were too long and drawn out but overall, the last 5-6 chapters were better.
I love the book of Ruth, yet spending time at the end of the book offering thoughts (i.e. Salmon and Rahab were Boaz’ parent, etc.) caused the book to lose potency. Some things need no explanation or interpretation.
What the Lord has allowed to be in the Bible is in the Bible - it cannot be taken out no matter who has an issue with it. The lineage of Jesus Christ is filled with all kinds of people-relations. But, they are GOD’s people and it is His process. No one can change it.

Tessa has a beautiful way with words and making Bible stories come to life. It’s a book that was hard to put down. Ruth is one of my favorite books in the Bible.

Didn't care for the reader's voice. The 's' was not smooth. I listened because I had already used the credit.
