    A Big Fish Tale / All Lives Matter

    Contributed by Darian Catron on Jul 21, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 14,043 views

    The story of Jonah is not just a Big Fish Tale. It's a true story with an incredible message relevant to our time. It's a message about a God who cares for all lives, even those of our enemies and those who hate us.

    INTRODUCTION: Today I want to tell you a BIG FISH TALE. How many fishermen do we have here today? Now our fish tales are always the truth, right? I caught a fish this big! But there's a story in the Bible about a Big Fish and about a man who lived to tell the tale. BODY: Let's Turn in your ...read more

    Here Am I...send Someone Else, Pt. One

    God calls specific people to specific places for specific purposes. When God called Jonah, his response was quite different that that of the prophet Isaiah. Whereas Isaiah said, "Here am I. Send me!" Jonah said, "Here am I...send someone else."

    Series: Jonah and the City Here am I... Send Someone Else, Pt. One Jonah 1:1-2 This morning I want to begin a study of the life of Jonah. This first message I’ve actually broken in two, so this week I’ll preach part one and next week I’ll preach part two. God calls specific ...read more

    When God Calls Series

    Are we reluctant or willing when God commissions us? Jonah is a great study in God's heart verses our own when it comes to mercy and grace.

    Join me in a look at Jonah. 2 Kings 14: 23 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, became king in Samaria, and reigned forty-one years. 24 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam ...read more

    A Pursuing God Series

    The first sermon in a series on Jonah, concentrating on 3 timeless truths: God takes notice of sin (and takes it seriously), running from God is not healthy, and God always pursues us.

    (Slide #1) The Running Man: A Pursuing God Jonah 1 In 1987 a movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger called “The Running Man” came out. This was a movie about a futuristic game show (set in todays time) that used convicted criminals as what they called “Runners” who, if ...read more

    One of the unfortunate things about the book of Jonah is: most people know only about the great fish, but they know nothing of the great God.

    One of the unfortunate things about the book of Jonah is: most people know only about the great fish, but they know nothing of the great God. Jonah is for real! He was the son of a Amittai. 2 Kings 14:25. A prophet who prophesied in the time of Jeroboam II. Our main concern should not be whether a ...read more

    This is the 1st of 31 Sermons on the Book of Jonah, where I've compared The Church at large with Jonah

    Introduction We are all aware that the story of Jonah as recorded in the Bible is a true story of an account that took place in history and one that cannot be disputed. But what I’d like to do in these 31 devotions, is compare the story of Jonah as recorded in the book of Jonah, with The Church ...read more

    What’s the BIG IDEA of the book? God is a God of extravagant grace, especially to the ones who seem less deserving of His grace.

    I am Jonah Jonah 1:1-3 Pastor Jefferson M. Williams Chenoa Baptist Church 09-01-19 You Think you Know Jonah? If you have grown up in church at all, you know the story of Jonah.

    Chapter 1 - Running From God Series

    Contributed by Brady Boyd on Jan 30, 2020
     | 3,906 views

    God said to go east, so he goes west. God says to go overland, instead he takes off toward the sea. Sent to the big city, he tries to flee to the end of the world.

    Jonah Chapter 1 – Running from God February 2, 2020 Jonah 1:2-6 NIV “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.”3 But Jonah ran away from the LORD and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. ...read more

    A Disturbing Call From A Merciful God Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 17, 2020
     | 4,873 views

    The call by God for Jonah to go to Nineveh to preach is a call which confronts Jonah with a disturbing dynamic of God’s unanticipated mercy. Jonah finds this call too disturbing so he goes in the opposite direction to run away from the call of God.

    Message Jonah 1:1-3 A Disturbing Call From A Merciful God I don’t have definitive proof but it would be my educated opinion that the story of Jonah … specifically the part where Jonah is swallowed by a large fish or whale … is one of the most well-known stories in the Bible. Ask anybody who Jonah ...read more

    Many remember Jonah as a book about Jonah and the big fish. This book is really about the relentless love and pursuit of God.

    Intro: What do most people remember about Jonah if you have ever heard the story in VBS or Sunday School? You probably remember that it is a whale of a tale. There would be lots of talk about Jonah and his disobedience and reluctance to go where God tells him to go. The problem with remembering ...read more

    Part 2 this is not about you. This book is about God and His call and pursuit of man. Especially the pouting prophet, Jonah.

    Intro: I want to remind you that this whale of a tale called the book of Jonah is not about a great big fish, a great big city or a grumpy old prophet. This book is about a Great big God that is willing to graciously deal with a disobedient, disgruntled, disgusted prophet. In this story of a ...read more

    The amazing story of Jonah reminds us: 1) Don't run from God, 2) When life gets you down, look up, 3) Respond to God's second chance, and 4) Get God's heart for people. Like Jonah, we need to give up the "reluctant prophet" role and stay in God's will.

Or maybe you’ve felt like God wanted you to do something, but you resisted that urge? If so, you can identify with the prophet Jonah. ...read more
