Pastor Paul Rogers preaches on the first Sunday in Advent about preparing for Christmas
Ruth’s loving loyalty and Boaz’s act of redemption reverse all the despair and desperation of chapter 1 for Naomi. It is also the beginning of Israel’s rescue from lawlessness and godlessness, and later still, of Christ’s redeeming of the world. Our kinsman-redeemer replaces death with life, emptiness with fulness, homelessness with a home to come etc.
Pastor Paul Rogers preached on how Boaz was the kinsman redeemer for Ruth.
There is a contrast of Boaz with the other kinsman who wants the land but not the obligations that go with Ruth’s hand in marriage. Boaz knows the Law and uses it well, but goes beyond the letter of the law to the spirit of it, acting in Ruth, Naomi and the clan’s interest, not his own. He ensures Ruth is fully welcomed into the nation of Israel (vv11-12). As Christ had no need to give up his rights for our sake, so we should live lives of love which go beyond obligation to self-sacrificial love. Christ perfectly fulfilled the Law, so we are now freed from its restrictions to live by the Spirit and the law of love (Galatians 5).
Ruth courageously takes the initiative, and behind the scenes, God is also at work to provide. God wants us to welcome the outsider and care for the vulnerable.

Pastor Paul Rogers shared a short prophetic message with the church.
Sunday 1st October 2023.
Making Church a Home and not just a House. Is the Home ready for the Prodigals to come back and what do we need to do to ensure it is?
David’s realisation that we must all walk in obedience to God’s ‘prescribed ways’ (1 Chr.15:13)
What could this mean for us as individuals and at a corporate level?
The Ark as a symbol of God’s presence and favour among his people.
Why knowing these is vital to our existence as individual disciples and
communities of faith.
❖ Why operating in our own strength and presumption is not how we
facilitate the favour of God (CF the unsettling example of Uzzah)
