Ruth | Risky Business (week 3)

Sometimes love requires a leap of faith. In this powerful message from Ruth chapter 3, we explore how love that protects, trusts, hopes, and perseveres often comes with risk. But as we’ll see, it’s in the risk that redemption begins.

Ruth and Naomi are no longer just surviving—they’re stepping into a future only God could orchestrate. Naomi takes a bold step to secure Ruth’s future. Ruth obeys and risks her reputation, safety, and heart. And Boaz? He responds with integrity, protection, and generosity.

But this chapter isn’t just about romance. It’s a story about kindness in action, bold obedience, and faith in the unknown. And through it all, God’s providence is quietly at work, weaving the threads of redemption into their lives—and into ours.

You'll discover:

👉🏼 How love looks out for others (like Naomi for Ruth)
👉🏼 Why trust is essential in relationships and faith
👉🏼 How hope leads to action, even when the outcome is unclear
👉🏼 Why God calls us to persevere, even when we can’t see the full plan
👉🏼How Ruth, Boaz, and Naomi each reflect the love of our ultimate Redeemer: Jesus
