Pentecost is a time of conversion and commitment to God and related in several ways in the story of Ruth. In this message, we follow the story of Ruth, a foreigner, and how she converted to worship the true God. She was Naomi's daughter-in-law and desired to relocate with her rather than remain in Moab with their false gods. Eventually, she became the wife of Boaz, the mother of Obed, and the grandmother of King David, all ancestors to Jesus Christ.
