From Ruin to Redemption: God’s Greater Story

From Ruin to Redemption: God’s Greater Story

Have you ever asked, “Why is this happening to me?” 
In the final chapter of Ruth, we see a story that begins with loss end with life. A story that starts in grief ends in joy. But it doesn’t skip the pain in between. This sermon doesn’t gloss over suffering — it acknowledges it. Because for many of us, life feels more like Mara than Naomi. But what if, even in the bitterness, God is at work? What if the loss, the waiting, and the silence are part of a redemption that’s already unfolding? As Justin closed out our Ruin to Redemption series, we saw how God was never absent — not in Moab, not in the famine, and not in the waiting. And He’s not absent in your story either! If you’re walking through uncertainty, doubt, or pain, this message is for you. Come be reminded that even when it doesn’t feel like it — God is writing something beautiful!
