Most Bible readers are familiar with the basic story of Hosea. God tells Hosea to marry a woman of harlotry (Gomer), which represents God’s relationship with Israel. Just as Gomer was faithless towards Hosea, so was Israel faithless towards God.
But what about Hosea’s kids?
The first chapter of Hosea says they have three kids — each of which with names that describe the punishment of Israel. There is a lot we can learn from these three names, both what it meant for Israel, and what it can mean for us today.

CloseIt's super common for people to say that "the church is going away" or "people aren't interested in the Gospel anymore," but I don't think that statement is 100% accurate. Churches may be closing their doors, but I believe people are still interested in God. Even if that weren't true though, I should still believe it. Why? Because once I start to doubt that people aren't interested in the Gospel anymore, my evangelism will cease. And when that happens, I'll lose heart. Christians have to be optimists. There's simply no other option for us.
