As we continue in our "God's Great Story" overview of the Bible, it just so happens that we land on the book of Ruth on Easter Sunday. I couldn't have picked a better Old Testament text for Easter! This is not the traditional Easter sermon text, but I think you'll love how it all points to Jesus.
P.S. We used the "Grease" video clip (0:00 - 1:25 min.) to illustrate how Boaz might have experienced Ruth (had they lived in the 1950's) after Naomi told her to beautify herself with perfume, make up, a pretty dress, and her best high heels (so to speak) in order to "knock Boaz off of his feet" and get his attention (per Ruth 3:3-4).
Enjoy! :)
