    Part 5 in a series on the book of Jonah

    As we begin looking toward our mission conference next month, I want to share some thoughts with you from the book of Jonah – a prophet who tried to escape from warning a savage nation to repent, because he actually wanted God to judge them! So he boarded a ship heading the other way, but ...read more

    God Of Mission

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 17, 2021
     | 2,728 views

    Talk 2 in my five-talk series on Jonah. Mission is God's mission. In the story of Jonah - and especially in view of what Jesus says about Jonah - we recognize that God is the master strategist in mission and he's breathtakingly creative.

    Jonah Talk 2: God of Mission Last week I started a new series on Jonah. My major theme last week was how compassionate God is. At the time of Jonah, the Assyrian Empire was expanding. Historians of the Middle East tell us how cruel the Assyrian rulers were. I spared you the grizzly details. ...read more

    The Greatest Conversion In History

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 19, 2021
     | 3,147 views

    We can make a case for Nineveh's conversion being the greatest conversion in history. But whether it was or not, Jesus was clearly impressed. It shows us what genuine repentance looks like.

    When I was a child people would sometimes give me a book called ‘the Guinness Book of Records’ as a Christmas present. I guess many of us have come across it. I remember as a kid browsing through the records. You can now find most of the records online and it’s now called simply ‘Guinness World ...read more

    In God’s economy failure is never a defining outcome because God never gives up on anybody – therefore we should always expect the miracle of transformation to take place.

    Message Jonah 3:1-10 Recommissioned By A Merciful God. Do you remember the first time you tried to ride a bike? It’s such a tranquil and joyful occasion isn’t it. But that is only after a lot of other things have happened. Eventually your bike riding efforts look like this. But usually ...read more

    A Tale Of Two Fish Stories

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 1, 2021
     | 2,684 views

    What do these two stories (Jonah and disciples called to be fisher of men) the have in common? The disciples were called to be fishers of people and Jonah got eaten by a fish. Both of these stories have elements of decision, opposition and courage.

    A TALE OF TWO FISH STORIES Text: Jonah 3:1- 5, 10 Mark 1:14 – 20 Jonah 3:1-10  The word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time, saying,  (2)  "Get up, go to Nineveh, that great city, and proclaim to it the message that I tell you."  (3)  So Jonah set out ...read more

    Lent is a ritual of the Church that leads us into the hope we have in Jesus. Fasting and Prayer are disciplines of Lent to bring about suffering to draw a person closer to God

    “Lent is one of the oldest observations on the Christian calendar. Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter.

    Character Study Of Jonah Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 23, 2025
     | 300 views

    Jonah’s story is a powerful example of God’s mercy, human weakness, and the necessity of obedience. His journey from rebellion to reluctant obedience and his struggle with God’s grace teach us that God’s will must be done, and His mercy extends to all who repent.

    CHARACTER STUDY OF JONAH – PROPHET SENT TO NINEVEH By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Jonah 1:1-2 "Now the word of the Lord came unto Jonah the son of Amittai, saying, Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry against it; for their wickedness is come up before me." Supporting ...read more

    Sermon # 27 - Heed God's Warnings Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 20, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 490 views

    God’s message through the Prophet Jonah was one of warning to the people of Nineveh to repent of their sinful ways. The call of God all through the bible is for people to repent and turn back to Him. Genuine repentance alone can bring genuine change that will please God and bless others.

    We read in Jonah 3:3-4, “So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of the LORD. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city, of three days' journey. And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be ...read more

    Sermon # 28 - Discerning Prophecies Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 501 views

    Jonah was a prophet of God sent with a prophetic word for the people of Nineveh. In today’s context, ‘How can we discern who is a true prophet of God and who are false?’ God’s word gives us clear instructions on how to test and treat prophecies.

    We read in Jonah 3:3-4, “So Jonah arose, and went unto Nineveh, according to the word of Jehovah. Now Nineveh was an exceeding great city, of three days' journey. And Jonah began to enter into the city a day's journey, and he cried, and said, Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be ...read more

    Sermon # 29 - The Power Of Preaching The Word Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 27, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 576 views

    Jonah preached and the people of Nineveh repented. Preaching the word of God should be taken seriously, should be based on the word of God. Here are some important aspects of preaching which when followed will certainly produce a bountiful harvest.

    We read in Jonah 3:5, “The people of Nineveh believed God. They decided to stop eating for a time to think about their sins. They put on special clothes to show they were sorry. All the people in the city did this, from the most important to the least important.” (ERV) The people of Nineveh ...read more

    Sermon # 30 - Fasting - A Spiritual Discipline Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Nov 29, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 660 views

    The people of Nineveh fasted and repented of their sinful ways at the preaching of Jonah. Fasting is a spiritual discipline, which helps us set aside physical food to spend time with God so that we are strengthened on the inside and can experience genuine transformation in our lives.

    We read in Jonah 3:4-5, Jonah started through the city, and after walking a whole day, he proclaimed, "In forty days Nineveh will be destroyed!" The people of Nineveh believed God's message. So they decided that everyone should fast, and all the people, from the greatest to the least, ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 462 views

    When the King of Nineveh heard the preaching of Jonah and knew that God’s judgement was impending, he got off his throne and humbled himself before God, the King of kings. God must be enthroned in our hearts too and we must allow Him to rule over our lives.

    We read in Jonah 3:6, “When the king of Nineveh heard about it, he got up from his throne, took off his robe, put on sackcloth, and sat down in ashes.” (GNB) When the King of Nineveh heard about the impending judgement as preached by the prophet Jonah, he immediately got up from his throne, took ...read more
