The Woman on the Shelf

Do you feel like you are on the shelf? Well, you are not the only one. In the Bible there was at least one woman who found herself on the shelf when her husband died unexpectedly and she was left alone with no one but her mother-in-law for company. Her name is Ruth, and, as single women, we can learn a lot from her story.

We see how she placed worship on her shelf when she cried out, “Your God shall be my God.” We see her placing friendship on her shelf when she clung to Naomi, her mother-in-law and cried out, “Entreat me not to leave you!” And by declaring, “Let me go to the field” she places purpose on her shelf.

In this book we look closer at these three things and how each of them can enrich our lives during our season of singleness. This book removes the shame of singleness and shows women how they can use this time in their lives to become the women God created them to be.
