01 | One Brave Yes- A Devotional on the Life of Ruth

In the debut episode of the Preach It, Sister podcast, titled One Brave Yes, host Ashley Forsberg dives into the inspiring story of Ruth from the Old Testament. Ruth’s life provides a powerful example of how one brave, obedient decision can create a ripple effect that changes everything. This episode offers deep encouragement to anyone standing at a crossroads, facing uncertainty, or navigating through seasons of hardship.

Ashley recounts Ruth’s courageous decision to leave behind her homeland, culture, and identity to follow her mother-in-law Naomi and embrace a new identity as an Israelite. Through Ruth’s choice to align herself with Naomi’s people and God, she not only survives but ultimately thrives, finding herself woven into the grand narrative of God’s redemptive plan through her marriage to Boaz, which places her in the lineage of Jesus Christ.

Throughout the episode, Ashley encourages listeners to reflect on their own brave choices. She draws a parallel between Ruth’s journey and the daily decisions we face, emphasizing that one obedient step in faith can lead to profound transformation. Through personal anecdotes and reflections from her own life, Ashley shares how her initial yes to writing a book had an unexpected impact on a young girl’s spiritual life.

This episode is a call to action, urging listeners to embrace their God-given identity, silence doubts, and boldly step forward in obedience. Ashley leaves her audience with the invitation to reflect on what God might be calling them to say yes to today and to trust in the life-changing power of that one brave yes.
