An in-depth study of the book of Ruth, this split sermon uncovers layer after layer of meaning, drawing parallels that are easy to miss in a casual reading of this beautiful story. Ruth’s absolute commitment, her vulnerability, and her willingness to labor are set beside Boaz’s wealth, discernment, and redeeming role. From these preserved details emerge clear lessons for Christians today and an unmistakable picture of Christ as our Redeemer. It is a compelling look at a familiar account that rewards careful attention.
