God Of Mercy Series

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on Apr 26, 2023

Mysterious Mercy

Contributed by J Bernard Taylor on Jul 18, 2020

Have you wondered about the mysterious ways of God? Others have too. This sermon talks about it.

An old hymn I love says, “God moves in a mysterious way his wonders to perform He plants his footsteps on the sea and rides upon the storm.” I thought about that hymn as I looked at our text for today in Genesis 21. There is a mystery about this text, which is not easy to explain. In our ...read more

Knowing Jonah was the reason for the storm the faced, the mariners continued to do all they could to spare Jonah from being thrown into the sea. Little did they know that God had a greater plan!
