The Best American Sports Writing by Dan Jenkins

Premium Roast with Ruth is part of the Coffee Cup Bible Studies, a series of Bible studies for women in compact, workbook format that examine the life and times of certain Bible characters and the books of the Bible that pertain to them. Each study is to be read over a four-to-six week period, and study sections are broken down into short, daily segments designed to fir reader's busy lifestyles.

Understanding that time is precious, the Coffee Cup Bible Studies are patterned in such a convenient way that they can be read during brief fulls in a woman's daily schedule-short windows of opportunity that allow for meditation and study (breakfast, lunch, coffee breaks, etc.) Scripture is provided from the NET Bible (New English Translation). making Bible study convenient for occasions when you can't carry a Bible.

Ruth is born in the wrong place- Moab. She marries an Israelite at the wrong time-when his nation is experiencing a famine. And she ends up in the wrong circumstances-her husband dies leaving her childless and penniless. Yet miraculously, this widow ends up as the right person in the right place at the right time, and fortunes changes for the better.

Premium Roast with Ruth considers one of the two great women for whom a book of the Bible is named. designed for group or individual study, this Bible study demonstrates how God is in control; how He always keeps His promises; how He can reverse impossible circumstances; and ho He blesses the faithful more richly and for longer than they could ever imagine.
