Do the Next Right Thing

 Ruth: Finding God in the ordinary

Most of us know what we should do, but we're just waiting for a better moment. We're waiting for the perfect moment or maybe a sign from God, but what if it never comes?

This week in Ruth 4, we watch Boaz get up in the morning, call a meeting, and do what faithfulness asked of him. He didn't hesitate or delay what he knew needed to happen.

Maybe there's a decision you've been avoiding. Sometimes it takes more faith to walk the line than wait for a sign. Join us this Sunday as we look at what it really means to do the next right thing.
