Gomer is not a role model but her story illustrates God's patience and message to Israel through her and her children.

In Episode 3, we will find out why God told Hosea to marry Gomer and the significance of Hosea's obedience. We will also explore why the meaning of Gomer's children's names (Jezreel, L-ruhamah, Lo-ammi) is significant. We will share questions to guide our continuing study in Gomer in Hosea 3. where we will have a clear lens into God's heart for His people.
