Enter the Boaz

He probably didn't dress like that.

My most recent sermon on Ruth chapter 2, Enter Boaz,  is available for streaming or downloading on the TBPC website.  You’ll find themes of providence, faith, and godliness encompassed within the framework of the gospel. My seminary homiletics professor always stresses having a clear sentence that can sum up your sermon, for this sermon the sentence is: “God uses Ruth’s faithfulness & Boaz’s kindness to providentially bring the Messiah closer to incarnation.”

So give it a listen! Or, if you prefer, simply read a review of it!

Ruth 1:1-5 (begins)

For my AM sermon on 01/24…

1 In the days when the judges ruled there was a famine in the land, and a man of Bethlehem in Judah went to sojourn in the country of Moab, he and his wife and his two sons. 2 The name of the man was Elimelech and the name of his wife Naomi, and the names of his two sons were Mahlon and Chilion. They were Ephrathites from Bethlehem in Judah. They went into the country of Moab and remained there. 3 But Elimelech, the husband of Naomi, died, and she was left with her two sons. 4 These took Moabite wives; the name of the one was Orpah and the name of the other Ruth. They lived there about ten years, 5 and both Mahlon and Chilion died, so that the woman was left without her two sons and her husband.

A lot of providence in those first five verses.
