While sneaking off to barley threshing floors and exchanging sandals isn't likely to be a part of too many engagement stories today, there's much to be said about how to select a spouse in the story of Ruth and Boaz.

Why did they choose one another? Boaz wasn't desperate, and Ruth could certainly have wooed younger men. So what attracted them to each other?

Turns out their story showcases characteristics that are just as important today as they were then.

We wrap up this story titled "Ruth" in the Bible with the woman who opened the book -- Naomi. No embittered old soul, she has quite the group of friends cheering for her. Discover why!
