Meet Ruth Wardell ...
Better Known as "Ruth with the Truth"
By Emily Glisson

was the will of God. I said, "When I get old, I want to
be able to look back and say I've done the will
of God." I was passionate about that, almost
obsessed with it to a certain extent. Now I
can look back and truly say, with all of my
heart and with all of my soul, that my entire
life, I strove to do the will of God. I'm still
working on it, and I think that is the most
important thing.
The day that I was born was really the day
that I began my ministry to the Jewish people.
My father, a Baptist minister, chose the name
Ruth for his daughter. In the
Bible, Ruth said to Naomi,
her Jewish mother-in-law,
"Your people shall be my
people, and your God, my
God." My father never
imagined how prophetic
my name would become.~
