'Campfire Conversations' are a collection of short stories retelling classic Bible stories from the old and new testaments. They follow two points of view: the POV of our story tellers, Martha and Lucius, and the POV of the people in the Bible accounts. These POVs are separated by the * symbol.
'The Moabitish Damsel' tells the story of Ruth, a young widow who moved to Bethlehem-Judah with her mother in law and found a life there better than she ever expected. Ruth is the only woman in the Bible to be called 'virtuous', and is a testament to what can happen when you have faith, work hard, and never doubt God's immense, immeasurable love for you.
