Pastor Vince McDonald, Katrina McDonald, and Bill Merkh welcome back a good friend of the show, Pastor Shane Colwell from Grace Bible Church of Barrington, who returns with his brand‑new book, A Life Worth Following: Godly Leadership Lessons from the Life of Boaz.

Together, the panel dives into the often‑overlooked leadership brilliance of Boaz, exploring how the book of Ruth offers a surprisingly rich blueprint for integrity, compassion, and strength in everyday life. Shane unpacks why Boaz's character still resonates today and how his steady, sacrificial leadership points us toward something even greater.

The conversation ultimately turns to Christ as the “better Boaz,” the true Redeemer who fulfills the story's deepest themes and shows us what perfect leadership looks like.

It's thoughtful, warm, and full of the kind of insight that makes Scripture feel alive and relevant. A great listen for anyone who wants to grow as a leader, deepen their faith, or simply enjoy a rich conversation among friends.
