A Woman of Valor

"There was a famine in the land." Thus begins one of the most beloved stories in the Bible. To save their flocks from the devastation of a drought, Naomi and her family leave Bethlehem to live among the Moabites, enemies of the Israelites since the time of Moses. Surmounting hardships and tragedies, Naomi draws on her courage and resilience to bring about a marriage which changes the course of history. Set against the backdrop of war and anarchy during the Time of the Judges, A Woman of Valor is a story of kindness, loyalty, and generosity. It is also a testament to the need for all mankind to bear responsibility for the poor, the foreign, and the bereaved.
