The Christmas That Wasn't Series

Sermon # 50 - Which Side Are You On? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 18, 2025

As Jonah fretted and fumed that God withheld His judgement on the people of Nineveh, God saw a people who were ignorant and could not decipher between right and wrong. God calls the church to disciple their members, and grow them in maturity so all will be found in God’s eternal Kingdom.
