    Redemption and Restoration

    Redemption and Restoration

    In the final chapter of the book of Ruth, we see two contrasting responses when it comes to being a redeemer. One man says the price is too high, while the other (Boaz) declares that no price is too high to redeem Ruth and restore Naomi's family line.
    Boaz's selfless actions foreshadow the ultimate redemption we have in Jesus Christ. Like Boaz, Jesus willingly, purposefully, faithfully, and unselfishly paid the ultimate price to redeem us and restore our relationship with God. As the sermon reminds us, "Jesus said there is no price too high to redeem you."
    This powerful message shows how the story of Ruth points to the greater story of our redemption through Christ.

    Waiting with Trust

    Waiting with Trust

    In this sermon, Pastor Nick Spencer continues his series on the story of Ruth by looking at chapter 3. We see Naomi's plan for Ruth to propose marriage to Boaz, the guardian-redeemer. Even though there is another redeemer who is more closely related, Boaz shows loving-kindness (hesed) by promising to take care of Ruth if the other redeemer does not fulfill his duty. Pastor Nick draws an application to young people about making the decision to seek the shelter and provision of Jesus, our ultimate Guardian-Redeemer.

    Blessed Among the Barley

    Blessed Among the Barley

    In this sermon, Pastor Nick Spencer dives into the story of Ruth, focusing on her encounter with Boaz in Ruth chapter 2. He explores the themes of God's sovereign hand, the importance of loving-kindness (hesed), and the role of the kinsman-redeemer. Pastor Nick challenges the congregation to follow the example of Boaz and show this same kind of sacrificial, above-and-beyond love to others, even those with whom we disagree. The sermon emphasizes the need for the church to be known for its hesed, just as God has shown us this undeserved kindness through Christ.
