"Christmas with Ruth is a captivating look at the beautiful love story from the book of Ruth in the Old Testament. Lester Jones is a pastor with a shepherd's heart. This comes through clearly as he weaves together the biblical story with a contemporized account, accented by teaching points that make gentle but poignant applications. I commend the book for your Advent reading and study with family and small groups."
