Free Resource | Does the Bible Promote Tolerance or Intolerance?
One group says the Bible is a book about love, mercy, and kindness. They think of the story of the Good Samaritan and of Jesus telling us to turn the other cheek.

Contemporary society says that marriage is simply a deal. You look for someone who can offer you what you want and who desires what you can give them in return, and then you get married. What that means, though, is that if eventually the other person can no longer provide what you desire, then the deal is off. But contemporary society is wrong.

The story of Ruth falls in the time of the Judges, showing us one family and within that, one woman, Ruth. God, in the midst of the chaos of Judges, has His people, has His purpose—and here's Ruth. And God uses her in amazing ways.
