The Book of Ruth with Rachel Starr

Recovering God: The Conversations

In this episode, Rachel Starr talks to Grace about the book of Ruth. We dig deep into the characters and discover that it is not the classic love story that some of us had originally thought! As well as answering our usual podcast questions, Rachel offers some practical advice to help us all to uncover hidden truths in these biblical texts.
