Advent: Love

Ruth 4 offers us a picture of sacrificial, redemptive love—a love that is expressed through action, choice, and provision. As we enter into the final week of Advent season, we are reminded of the love that God showed when He sent His Son, Jesus, to redeem us. Like Boaz, Jesus is the ultimate Kinsman-Redeemer, who steps into our world to restore and bless us, even at great cost. Ruth’s story points us to the love of God that we celebrate during Advent: a love that provides, restores, and gives hope to all people
