Resumen del Editor

The story of Hosea and Gomer is probably the greatest love story in all the Bible, because it demonstrates the love God has for His people. Hosea was the first Old Testament prophet to talk about the nature of God. Not only did he talk about it, he acted it out. Hosea took Gomer, a town prostitute, to be his wife. When she eventually left him, Hosea went out to find her and bought her back from the threat of slavery and death. His actions were a prophetic demonstration of God’s love for his people—a foreshadowing of the day when God would give His beloved Son to purchase us and save us from the bonds of sin. Are we going to be like Gomer, forsaking His love and forgiveness, going the way of the prostitute? Or are we going to allow ourselves to be redeemed and changed by the greatest love we will ever know? This is an extraordinary story, and its applications transcend the years. Jamie Buckingham, a master storyteller, tells the story of Hosea and Gomer in a manner no one else can.
