Send us a textIn this episode of the Village Church sermon podcast, Pastor Eric concludes the series on Ruth by asking a hard question: Why? Why did Naomi have to lose her husband and sons before experiencing blessing? Why does suffering come first? This reflection opens up a conversation about hope, the shape of an epic life, and the promise of happy endings. Pastor Eric highlights Boaz as the Redeemer who points to Jesus—and as a picture of how we, too, can live as representatives of Christ in the world.Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message. It is an invitation into the great and ongoing story of God's work in the world. Pastors Eric, Mark, Susan, Daniel, and other leaders open the Scriptures not as a collection of abstract ideas but as the living, breathing witness to God's kingdom breaking into our midst. Each episode is a call—not merely to listen, but to take part, to step forward into the life of faith with renewed vision and purpose. Week by week, the pastors and leaders explore the deep rhythms of Christian discipleship—prayer, fasting, generosity—not as isolated duties but as part of a larger, richer, and more beautiful whole. They unpack these ancient practices in light of Jesus himself, the one in whom heaven and earth have come together. But they also turn their attention to the realities of everyday life—relationships, finances, the struggles and joys of being human—demonstrating how the gospel is not merely about what we believe but about how we live as God's renewed people in the present age.

The Secret Thread Of Redemption- Ruth 4:18:22
Sometimes life seems so cold. But don't give up on God; for in the case of the righteous, better days are coming. God is the all seeing eye, and is everywhere all the time; knowing everything all the time; and has the power to do anything; all the time. When Noami thought that she had lost it all she never waivered in her character causing her daughter in law Ruth to decree that she would never leave her, because she too, being of a different nationality, believed in her mother in law's God; our God. God allowed Ruth to marry into the lineage and give birth in the lineage to Obed the father of David in which Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, in the natural, was born. How amazing, God did not ignore Naomi's loyalty and faithfulness t
Send us a textIn this episode of the Village Church podcast, we continue our sermon series through the book of Ruth. Jim Wroth walks us through the first half of chapter 4, exploring the significance of the city gate, the role of the kinsman redeemer, and Boaz's intentional plan to marry Ruth. Along the way, Jim challenges us to reflect on our own privilege and consider what the Gospel calls us to do with it. Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is more than just a weekly message.

Bitter To Blessed: Ruth 4:13-17
In Ruth 4:7–22, Pastor Rich Whitter unpacks the closing chapter of Ruth with a powerful message on redemption, legacy, and divine providence. As Boaz steps in as the kinsman-redeemer, we see a shadow of Christ—our ultimate Redeemer—who didn't hesitate, didn't hold back, and paid the full price to bring us into His family.This sermon challenges us to consider: Are we content to remain anonymous in our faith like the unnamed redeemer—or will we be like Boaz, stepping up with bold commitment, even when it costs us?As we reflect on redemption's cost, we're reminded that God's plans are often bigger than ours—and they always outlast us. From Ruth's loyalty to Boaz's integrity, and ultimately to the birthline of King David and Jesus Himself, we're invited to see how obedience today builds legacy for tomorrow.Let's live like people who've been redeemed—with courage, conviction, and a heart set on eternity.
Pastor Sean breaks down the encounter between Boaz, Mr. so and so, and the elders in this passage. We see that this is beautiful foreshadowing of our redeemer, Jesus! Like Ruth, we come to the relationship with nothing to offer, but Jesus, like Boaz, out of His great love for us offers us redemption... Have you been redeemed?
A widow, a foreigner, and a woman with nothing left to give. But through God's extravagant love, Ruth becomes part of the greatest redemption story in history.This isn't just about Ruth, Naomi, or Boaz. It's about a God who sees you in your pain, provides when you're empty, and weaves your story into something far bigger than you ever imagined.

Ruth opens with the story of a mother who lost just about everything—and, it closes with the story of a man who becomes a father. From beginning to end, it's a story of a God who is providentially at work in the lives of ordinary people like you and me and inviting us into the bigger story that is unfolding. Join us for a six-week journey, from Mother's Day to Father's Day, through the Book of Ruth.

Aaron Ku Series: Hope Restored Ruth 4 St John's Downshire Hill Sunday 1st June 2025 6:00pm
Pastor Esteban Garcia concludes our series in Ruth.
The book of Ruth began with famine, displacement, loss, bitterness, and bleak prospects for the future. But in Ruth 4, God does what only God can do: He graciously steps into ordinary faithfulness, risky obedience, and broken places, and He writes a better ending than anyone could have ever expected. Join us this week as we conclude our sermon series in Ruth and rediscover how God's redeeming grace can transform even our darkest chapters into stories of hope and new beginnings.

The book of Ruth never mentions God specifically doing anything, yet he is clearly working throughout the story. God is always working in our lives as well. How often do we recognize it?

Sometimes, the only way to get unstuck is for someone else to sacrifice.
Welcome to the Daily Disciple Podcast. As daily disciples, we seek to adore and follow Jesus, our teacher, into the abundant life that he offers. Because we find Jesus to be irresistible and fascinating and incredibly practical, we want to be students of his scripture. Today's episode is found in Ruth 4 "Count the Cost"
Join us as Pastor Jimmy teaches through Ruth 4.

Boaz offers us a challenging lesson in character. We tend to romanticize Biblical heroes and imagine that they were superhuman, but that's not the case. Boaz was just a man, but what set him apart was his commitment to follow God and keep his word. As Pastor Richard points out in today's message, Boaz made no delay in carrying out what he said he would do, generously bringing redemption to Ruth and her family line.

The final chapter of Ruth is where everything comes together. The widow who went away empty has had fullness returned to her, the nation without a king will have one raised up, and the foreigner will be welcomed as a wife and daughter. In all of this, Ruth is all about how God's redeeming love in Jesus transforms our darkest moments into a hope-filled future.

No story is too small and no life too ordinary to be part of God's greater plan of redemption. Set within the larger narrative of God's work in the world, the book of Ruth reveals how He weaves together the faithfulness of ordinary people to bring about His extraordinary redemption—not only for those in the story but ultimately for all of humanity.Sermon by Pastor Scott Edinger

Today's readings are Judges 9-11, Ruth 4, and Psalm 137. In the reading from Judges, we hear about the rise and fall of Abimelech, as well as the misguided and heartbreaking vow Jephthah makes to God in return for victory over the Ammonites. We also conclude the book of Ruth with the marriage of Boaz and Ruth. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
