    Benchwarmer Pt. 5 - Game Day I. Introduction As I told you about 7 weeks ago or so, I have been umping little league baseball for the last few seasons. I have learned some things from this experience. I have learned that the ump isn't supposed to dominate the game but facilitate it instead. I ...read more

    Discovering the capacity of God to forgive.

    THE EFFECT OF REPENTANCE. Jonah 3:1-5, Jonah 3:10 When Jonah at last arrived in Nineveh after his circuitous journey, his message was simple: “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown” (JONAH 3:4).

    Mad At God

    Look how patient God is with Jonah's sulking. He's that patient with you, too.

    Have you ever been mad at God? I have. I became a Christian in my 30’s, which is a little unusual. Quite a number of people recommit in their middle years, as they start looking around and wondering what it’s all about, but they were usually raised at least nominally Christian, while I was ...read more

    God will bring Holy Moments in your life to bring correction in your life.

    Introduction I have been a Christian for forty-seven years (47) years. During that time, I have to say that I have had a great relationship with God. But I also must tell you that the most powerful times in my Christian journey with the Lord occurred those times I called “Holy Moments.” Those “Holy ...read more

    Running From God Series

    Contributed by Mark Lindsey on Aug 7, 2023
     | 4,031 views

    The prophet Jonah is an interesting study, for his response to God’s call upon his life often mirrors our response when God calls upon us to be obedient to Him.

    “RUNNING FROM GOD” JONAH 1:1-17 The prophet Jonah is an interesting study, for his response to God’s call upon his life often mirrors our response when God calls upon us to be obedient to Him.

    What Was The Sin That Caused The Boat To Rock? Series

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 28, 2024
     | 1,022 views

    Evil was rampant through the area. God called a man to preach repentance. But instead of doing as he was instructed, he ran. How many Christians today are like that?

    When an evil empire displayed its power before God and the world through various demonstrations of inhumane mercilessness, that is when Jonah heard God instruct him to proceed to call the people to repent for their sins. However, Jonah ran away from God. In verses one - three: God called Jonah to ...read more

    "your Spiritual Nineveh Awaits You."

    based on 1 rating
     | 947 views

    Just as the biblical figure Jonah was summoned to the city of Nineveh to deliver a message of repentance, today's spiritual Nineveh represents a population that may lack understanding or awareness of moral and ethical principles.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Jonah 1:1-4) (1) “Now the word of the LORD came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,” (2) “Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me.” (3) “But ...read more

    A Way To Revival

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 25, 2025
     | 452 views

    Imagine a city so entrenched in its ways that the very notion of change seems radical, if not impossible. Yet, through the obedience of Jonah, a reluctant prophet, and the subsequent repentance of the Ninevites, we witness one of the most powerful revivals in biblical history.

    OPENING ILLUSTRATION: God revived me when I went to work in the Middle East. Till then I was just a lukewarm and laidback Christian. I saw the great need for the Gospel of Christ to be proclaimed to the so many lost souls there. They had no idea that they were perishing and there was only one way ...read more

    When we choose to believe in falsehoods over God's truth, we encounter difficulties. Never cease praying and believing until you've sought God's guidance.

    One of the greatest battles we face in life is the battle against spiritual slumber. When we are spiritually asleep, we become vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy. Just as physical sleep can leave us unaware of our surroundings, spiritual sleep can blind us to the schemes of the devil. In this ...read more
