    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 27, 2022
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,687 views

    The account of Jonah provides a picture of the love, forgiveness, and compassion of God. This overview of Jonah reveals the second chance the Lord is longing to extend to all people through His one and only Son, Jesus Christ.

    Our sermon for this morning is entitled “A God of Second Chances.” In “Jonah: A Veggie Tales Movie,” there is a scene where Jonah is sitting in the belly of a whale, and some angels appear out of nowhere and begin explaining to Jonah how God wanted to give him a second chance to be obedient; and ...read more

    Dancing With The Lord

     | 3,551 views

    By God's grace I want to present the incident that happened between Jonah and God as a dance of two friends.

    Often, when we examine the story of Jonah's initial refusal to follow God's instruction to go and peach to the people of Nineveh, we see a disobedient and selfish servant of God. Yes, this is a fact but, be it as it may, I would like to suggest that we look deeper into the story and view it ...read more

    Jonah’s response to his “second chance” or renewed commission is DEDICATION.
