To begin the session:
Distribute copies of the “How Do You Shop?” exercise from the activity page, which you can download here. Have learners work in pairs to complete the exercise as indicated before discussing conclusions as a whole group.
After the activity, say, “Today we’re going to look at the life of Ruth and how love motivated her to take a leap of faith.”
To engage the learners in a study of the Scripture text:
Distribute copies of the “What Would You Give Up?” exercise from the activity page. Have learners complete it individually in a minute or less before discussing conclusions with the class.
After the activity, talk through how Ruth’s courage and faithfulness helped both her and Naomi deal with their situation.
