C h r i s t m a s would mean nothing without The Baby born in Bethlehem .   And...speaking of Bethlehem, a group of us girls just finished studying the Book of Ruth. But why mention Ruth at C h r i s t m a s t i m e ? Well…it turns out...Ruth is set in Bethlehem . Interesting right? So, let’s see if we can find a C h r i s t m a s  connection, and conclude our series.   With famine in Bethlehem, Judah , Elimelech, Naomi, and their two sons, Mahlon and Chilion, fled to the pagan country of Moab.
