TGKIDS RECAP
TGKids
The heart of TGKids is to help children understand that the Bible is all about Jesus! Below is the story, scripture, and main teaching points from the TGKids lesson, so that you can talk with your kids about what they learned.
Bible Story: Ruth
Scripture: Ruth 1-4
Bible Truth: God’s blessing and salvation extend to people of every nation.
Where is Jesus: Matthew 1:5–6
Ruth lost her husband and father-in-law and served her mother-in-law. She was a very special person in God’s plan to bring his Son into the world. We learn in the genealogy of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew that Ruth was one of the great- grandmothers in Jesus’ line: “Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse the father of King David” (Matthew 1:5–6 niv).
In fact, Jesse, Ruth’s grandson, was the great King David’s father. Boaz and Ruth had another tie to Jesus. They lived in Bethlehem—the very town where Jesus was born!
The life of Boaz points to Jesus. Not only did he redeem the bloodline of Elimelech, but he also redeemed the land sold by Naomi.
Jesus is our redeemer. “For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect” (1 Peter 1:18–19 niv).
