SERMON SUMMARY
Sometimes we have to journey a little bit further down the road of life then we’d prefer. There are times when we would just as soon prefer to stay in one place and life’s circumstances move us to a new place or a new location, for whatever the reason. These unfortunate, unforeseeable and unplanned events in our life push us along and force us to keep moving even though we’d rather complacently stay where we are.
In this sermon, we will look at the story of Ruth for some insight into dealing with the unfortunate, unforeseen, unplanned events in our lives. Three questions that arise from these events are: (1) What can I do when I’m running on empty? (2) Which route do I take? and (3) How can I fill my tank up with hope?

“Making good decisions means allowing God to turn our bad moves into hopeful futures. ” -Gordon Venturella
“The surest way to destroy a relationship of trust and affection is to conceal larger and larger portions of my emotional life from the other person. The deception creates distance. And the same is true in our faith journey with God.” -Gordon Venturella
“In some Christian circles, unfortunately, we have forbidden the privilege of mourning. As a result of that we have been a bad example to those outside the family of God, because we’ve given them the impression that those who have placed their faith in God must always have sunny days and good moves.” -Gordon Venturella
