ISO catchy title for Megilas Rus shiur- practical lessons

Moderator Joined: Jun 05 2011 Posts: 3376

Would any of you talented women be able to help me think of a catchy title for a Megillas Rus shiur (probably a series of 2 or 3 shiurim), whose focus is practical lessons from Ruth for women in 2012?

The audience will be diverse; this will be at a Pesach hotel, and I need to give them the title asap!

TIA:)

The first thing that popped into my head was "Don't rush through life, Ruth through life."
I'll keep thinking...

A great course on Rus!

When I think of Rus, I think "grace". And when I think of 2012, I think "contemporary".
So how does "Contemporary Grace: What Rus is telling us today" sound?

Oh, thanks for all these suggestions!

I ended up naming it: Contemporary Lessons for Women from Megillas Rus

It went well. I learned this sefer several times, (from Rabbi Geisler in Neve, and from subsequent audios of his classes) and there are so many interesting concepts about self-improvement for women from this story of Rus.

awh... I'm glad it went well ... and I'm just gonna give a shout out to neve "shout out"

Where can I access his classes on Rus?

Rabbi Geisler gives 2 classes on this site for his alumni; you can contact them and ask to be allowed access: http://thetorahconnection.org/sendmessage.php

The classes are Pirkei Avos and 7 Minutes for Small Change - which is 7 minutes a day of self-improvement based on shmoneh esrei or the current yom tov/ season.

The Rus classes that I have are actual recordings of classes, so I don't think I can spread them around publicly, as you can clearly hear the girls' questions and voices.
