Part 1: Today we begin Lesson 3 of our study through The Book of Ruth. Facing a daunting cancer diagnosis, my faith was my anchor through the storm. It’s a journey that has shaped my dedication to uplifting women through the powerful stories in Scripture, like the inspiring tale of Ruth. We'll discuss the deep themes of faith, love, and redemption that illuminate Ruth's courage and humility.

I'm joined by Elia Raikes and my mother, Sherrie Godbey, and we focus on the relevance of Ruth's narrative in our lives now, particularly the idea of gleaning and how we can support those in need within our communities. As we examine the significance of wise counsel and the blessings that come from stepping out in faith, we reflect on our own character development and perseverance through adversity.

Part 3: Today, as we continue Lesson 2 from The Book of Ruth, we explore faith, courage, and resilience, inviting women to find strength in God’s redemptive plans amidst life’s chaos. Through personal stories of loss, we discuss the power of trusting God and the transformative role of community and friendship.

We reflect on Psalm 22 and the importance of embracing transparency and deep friendships, just as Ruth and Naomi did. Sharing burdens with trusted friends leads to healing and growth, and I encourage you to seek God’s presence and cultivate honest relationships for strength in challenging times. Join our Simply for Women community as we journey together towards a deeper connection with God and each other.
