    Sermon # 4 - Seek To Please God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 30, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,178 views

    Often we miss out on God’s call for our lives when we disobey the Lord or choose to please people over God. As a church may we not shun our responsibility to proclaim Christ, but stand up boldly to proclaim Christ and the good news of the Gospel.

    We read in Jonah 1:4, “Then the LORD sent a great wind over the sea, and a severe storm broke out. It seemed as if the ship were about to break up.” (ISV) As we continue these studies on the life of Jonah, we will be pleasantly surprised to know that there is a lot that we as a church can learn ...read more

    Sermon # 5 - No Fear In Obedience Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 4, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 975 views

    Jonah chose to disobey God and ended up in a tumultuous storm. Are we walking in obedience to God and His word or are we trying to compromise and please people? Here’s a word of caution from the life of Jonah that if God is against us, there is no one who can save us.

    We read in Jonah 1:5, “Then the mariners were afraid,” (ESV) The mariners were filled with dread when they saw that the sea was so tumultuous and beyond their control. They therefore, feared that the ship would be wrecked, their goods destroyed and they would lose their lives in the process. I am ...read more
