A Promise Made

July 9, 2023 • Derek A. Ward • Ruth 3:10–18

Even as Ruth’s obedience to Naomi’s instructions left her completely vulnerable to reproach, reproof, and even worse, we see a picture of complete integrity by both Boaz and Ruth where their true character was on display. We often face similar tests of our character and integrity, which reveal who we truly are when no one else is watching.

Join Pastor Derek in Ruth 3: 10 - 18 as he presents the significant imperatives to take rest in God’s promises, and to wait on the Lord.

Redeemed - The Prologue

June 4, 2023 • Derek A. Ward • Ruth 1:1–5

God has a vested interest in the lives of his people. Even when we seem not to be aware of it, He is never far away. In this epic story of one family’s journey from hardship to death and disappointment, we see God’s inevitable handprint planted all over the outcome as it morphs into yet another uplifting episode of His plan to redeem the world to Himself. Join Pastor Derek as he begins this series in Ruth and creates the foundation for the sermons to come.

Running on Empty

June 11, 2023 • Derek A. Ward • Ruth 1:6–22

Finding Favour

June 18, 2023 • Derek A. Ward • Ruth 2:1–13

Pastor Derek preaches from Ruth 2: 1 - 13 and comfort those experiencing hardship in their lives. He assures that we can find favour when life is hard based on a statement repeated by Ruth in chapter 2 where she hoped for favour (2: 2), wondered why she was favoured (2: 10), and rejoiced for the favour (2: 13).
