On this third Sunday of Advent, Pastor Brent brings his fourth sermon in the book of Ruth. By way of introduction, Pastor Brent reminds us that the purpose of giving gifts is relational, costly, and caring on the part of the giver—all ultimately reflecting Jesus’ sacrificial love in redeeming us. In this longest passage in our Advent 2025 sermon series, Pastor Brent preaches that “Redemption is Relational” (Ruth 3:1-18) and “Redemption is Costly” (Ruth 4:1-12). We need to approach our Redeemer with repentance and humility, knowing that in the gospel, we have the greatest news that Jesus Christ paid the price for us! Pastor Brent ends with a parallel passage in Rev. 5:9-10: the redeemed have a family LINE and a family LAND!
