Join Pastor Stephen Mizell, Pastor Jay Rivenbark, and Pastor Sheryl Daughety as they explore one of Scripture's most challenging pictures of God's redeeming love through Hosea's marriage to Gomer.

Scripture Focus: Hosea 1:1-3:5 - God commands the prophet Hosea to marry a prostitute as a living illustration of Israel's spiritual adultery and God's relentless covenant love.

In This Episode:

• How Hosea's shocking marriage reflects God's view of our unfaithfulness
• The cultural context that made this command so radical
• What true restoration requires beyond just saying "I'm sorry"
• Why rebellion must stop before restoration can begin

Key Quote: "The rebellion has to stop first for there to be restoration. It's never a second chance as long as you're still in the first."
