Description

A Woman with a Plan, A Man in Trouble
Naomi: The Wise Mother-in-Law

She left Bethlehem full—
and returned empty.
Yet God was not finished writing her story.

In this heartfelt and richly imagined retelling, A Woman with a Plan, A Man in Trouble invites readers into the world of Naomi, a woman whose journey through loss, bitterness, faith, and restoration reveals the quiet strength of a mother-in-law whose wisdom shaped the destiny of a nation.

Naomi's story is often overshadowed by Ruth's, but here her voice rises—soft, steady, and full of hard-earned insight. Through famine, grief, displacement, and despair, Naomi becomes a portrait of resilience and a reminder that God's plans unfold even in our darkest seasons.

This book explores:

Naomi's heartbreaking journey from fullness to famine The cultural, emotional, and spiritual weight of losing both husband and sons Her courageous choice to guide Ruth toward a future she no longer believed she deserved The motherly wisdom that positioned Ruth to meet Boaz How Naomi's obedience and discernment influenced the lineage of King David—and ultimately the Messiah The tender way God rewrote her story from sorrow to joy

Naomi teaches us that even when we feel abandoned, bitter, or broken, God is quietly working behind the scenes, weaving redemption into our grief. Through her guidance, courage, and deep compassion, she demonstrates that influence does not always come from authority—sometimes it comes from wisdom, humility, and a heart that still hopes even when it hurts.

This inspiring narrative is perfect for readers seeking:

Strong female voices in Scripture Stories of grief transformed into purpose Encouragement through seasons of suffering A deeper understanding of biblical family dynamics Hope, healing, and spiritual renewal

A Woman with a Plan, A Man in Trouble reveals Naomi as more than a supporting character—
she is a visionary elder, a spiritual guide,
and a wise mother-in-law whose legacy shaped the future of Israel.

Step into her journey—
and discover how God can turn any story, even the broken ones,
into a testimony of restoration.
