About this episode
The episode discusses the themes of gleaning in Ruth 2 and its implications for addressing poverty in the community.
In Ruth 2 we hear about Ruth gleaning in the field. And Boaz goes beyond the requirements of the law. Gleaning isn't just a way to provide for the poor and marginalized. Gleaning also raises a question as to why there are poor among the community in the first place and what are we called to do in light of that reality. The sermon is in response to Ruth 2:1-23
