Abstract -
In today's Mother's Day message Pastor Don uses the story of Ruth
to demonstrate qualities found in any great woman. Characteristics
like caring, commitment, respected by her pears, reputation, and
situational ethics. This message is basically a continuation of last
week's message (In The Hands Of The Potter 0916),
but perhaps directed more towards women. We all could learn from
Ruth. Are you ready to grow?
