About the series

God’s faithfulness in Ruth

  • Emptiness of MoabHarvest of Bethlehem
  • "Happenstance"Quiet providence
  • KinsmanTrue Redeemer

The book of Ruth is a profound narrative of how God’s sovereign grace navigates His people through the "dead ends" of life back to the center of His redeeming love. In this five-week series, Redeeming Love, we follow the journey of Naomi and Ruth as they move from the tragic emptiness of Moab to the abundant "barley harvest" of Bethlehem.

Throughout these sermons, we explore how God’s quiet providence works through "happenstance" encounters and the radical hesed (steadfast love) of His people. Ultimately, the story of Ruth points us to our True Kinsman-Redeemer, Jesus Christ, who spreads His covering of righteousness over us and provides a refuge that the world cannot offer.
