| Gomer (Letícia Laranja) is the product of a corrupted Samaria, far from Divine principles.

This is one of the best questions so far about the new series *“Amor em Ruínas”,* because many people use this story to justify doing the same: entering a relationship with someone who does not share their faith.   

Addressing the question, series writer Cristiane Cardoso explains:   

"**Hosea** did not do what he wanted—he obeyed. 

God gave him a mission more impossible than Ethan Hunt's: to marry a woman of prostitutions. The mission was not only challenging but, at first glance, thankless. After all, the prophet, who did not engage in that kind of practice, would have to unite with precisely someone who made it her way of life—someone, at the very least, his opposite.

But God did not ask this to test **Hosea** or humiliate him.

God wanted him to feel what He feels. And He wanted us—who read this story in the Bible and will now see it come to life on ***Univer Vídeo***, millennia later—to feel it too.

Not only concerning Israel, but humankind.

| The relationship between Gomer (Letícia Laranja) and Hosea (Murilo Cezar) represents God's relationship with human beings.

The truth is that God does not deserve everything He suffers because of us. Even so, He does not give up. He persists in loving, forgiving and giving new chances—even in the face of the extreme ingratitude He encounters every day."

**"Hosea** will suffer greatly because of **Gomer**. And we will suffer as we watch him suffer. Perhaps, by the end, this story will teach us something… and we will stop doing to God what pains us so much to see **Gomer** do to **Hosea**." the writer concludes.

So, are you ready to understand deeply what this relationship will reveal to us about true love?

“*Amor em Ruínas*”, the Bible's best-known romance, premieres soon, only on ***Univer Vídeo***.
