From an unusual story in Ruth 3:1-8, where Ruth proposed to Boaz based on Naomi’s advice, Toki Numbere shares three valuable principles for us to see our romantic relationships flourish today: Community, Chastity and Character.

Naomi's advice was motivated by her wanting to find a home for Ruth was so she could find rest (Ruth 3:1). And don't we all desire rest? (a state of satisfaction and flourishing in all areas of our lives) and often look for rest in people and things that do not satisfy. However, this endless pursuit for rest are pointers to where we will find true rest: God, who sent his son, Jesus Christ, to pay the price for our sins and cover us with his everlasting love through the blood of his covenant (Ezekiel 16:18). It is only when we accept his proposal that we will find rest.

How can we apply the three principles for flourishing relationships to our lives today? Watch to find out.
