What We Learned in Sunday School Today… Today in Sunday School students learned how God used Ruth to accomplish His purposes for our salvation. Through her family God brought forth His Son, the Savior of all people including Jews and Gentiles, men and women. Parents could ask, “How did Ruth demonstrate her trust in God? How does God help us to trust in Him?”
