Jesus' resurrection changed everything for the disciples and the world. His resurrection means that there is hope, and in Jesus, there is forgiveness of sins. To believe in Jesus, we believe in a God who overcomes death in death and gives us new life and forgiveness. 

Unlike David, Jesus was betrayed, caught, punished, and crucified by His own people. His death brings us life. To believe in the King of the Jews, we believe in a ruler who willingly laid down his life so that we might live. 

Jesus came for all of humanity as the rightful Son of all creation. Not only does he die for humanity, but he also willingly receives the betrayal of those with whom he shares a meal to save them. To believe in the Son of Man means to believe in someone who understands humanity through betrayal and suffering, and chooses to walk through it for us. 

Matthew 21:9 is a reflection on a name that has been given to Jesus throughout the Gospels. What does it mean to believe in the Son of David? It means that we believe in a God who, from the beginning, made a plan for the offspring of David, the great king of Israel, to redeem his people with the one True King in Jesus. To believe in the Son of David is to believe in a ruler who has been promised since the days of the great king, and to put our hope in a reality where we will be saved.

What began with famine and loss ends with joy, legacy, and new life. Through Ruth and Boaz, God reveals a redemption that reaches far beyond one family and into the story of His promised King. Come celebrate the faithfulness of God and the true Redeemer who turns emptiness into lasting hope.

In a public moment at the city gate, a simple sandal seals a life-changing covenant. What appears to be a small legal exchange becomes the turning point in God’s redemptive plan. Come see how faithfulness, integrity, and obedience bring restoration and hope through a promise kept.

In a risky and unexpected encounter, God’s redemptive plan moves forward in ways that challenge social norms and assumptions. Ruth’s bold faith and Boaz’s integrity reveal a grace that goes beyond what is safe or predictable. Come see how God works through daring trust and faithful obedience to bring redemption to life.

As Naomi begins to recognize God’s hand at work, hope rises through the presence of a redeemer who offers both provision and protection.
