Greg and Nathan are back with another episode in their walk through the book of Ruth, and this week they’re stepping into one of the most intimate and suspense-filled moments in the entire story — Ruth Chapter 3.
In “The Midnight Proposal,” the guys unpack Naomi’s bold plan, Ruth’s risky midnight mission to the threshing floor, and Boaz’s surprising response that reveals both character and covenant faithfulness. With warmth, clarity, and plenty of cultural insight, Greg and Nathan explore what’s really happening when Ruth “uncovers Boaz’s feet,” why her request to “spread your wings over your servant” is far more than poetic language, and how Boaz’s integrity shapes every choice he makes — even when romance is on the table.
Together they trace the themes of risk, redemption, waiting, and God’s quiet providence, answering questions like:
What motivates Naomi to take action now?
Was Ruth’s midnight visit inappropriate, or a culturally rich symbol of trust and commitment?
Why does Boaz call Ruth a “worthy woman,” and how does that connect her to his own character?
What does the nearer redeemer mean for the story — and for Boaz’s integrity?
How does Chapter 3 show us what courageous faith looks like in uncertain situations?
As always, Greg and Nathan bring thoughtful reflection, accessible explanation, and pastoral warmth as they explore how God’s redemptive story moves through bold faith and steadfast integrity.
If you’ve ever wondered what’s really going on in this midnight encounter — and what it shows us about God’s heart — you won’t want to miss this episode.
