Summary
Kerry and Lamar explore what makes the message of Hosea so beautiful and uplifting, rather than so shocking and such a downer. They explain why Hosea's marriage to Gomer should give us hope, why the book of Hosea helps us understand the entire Old Testament, and how we learn so powerfully from Hosea and Gomer about God's willingness to forgive us and bestow covenant blessings upon us.
