This sermon in the series, “Choices,” examines Boaz and his love for Ruth. Ruth comes to Boaz and having loved Ruth since the very first moment he saw her, he assures her of his love for her by promising to marry her.

It is important for a husband to love his wife just as Christ loves the church, and Boaz loved Ruth. If a man loves his wife as Christ loves the church, he will love her sacrificially, setting his own needs aside to meet hers. He will be the savior of his home, by leading his family closer to God. Last, he will provide her with security that she will always be protected from the outside world through his love.
