    Procrastination is something that many of us struggle with. There’s something in your life you know you need to do, and yet you keep putting it off. That is called procrastination. Procrastination is a spiritual issue. The Bible says that procrastination

    Discusses the spiritual battles within depth, with Christian insight and scriptures.

    Disobedience is one of the things that seem to hold us down. And when I think about it I wonder what God says about obedience. 1 Samuel 15:22 reads: ‘But Samuel replied: “Does the Lord delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as much as in obeying the voice of the Lord? To obey is ...read more

    Despite Jonah's attempt to flee, the LORD had a greater plan for the sailors as well as the prophet Jonah himself. Despite situations that seem hopeless and fruitless, the LORD can bring redemption and His purposes about, because HE IS GOD!

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,859 views

    To escape the presence of God is not rational thinking, certainly for a prophet of God. But how many of us are rational when we reject God’s commands and escape his attention? And that leads us to consider how much Jonah is like us.

    Jonah 1:1-4 Fleeing from God 10/19/14 D. Marion Clark Introduction Responding to the call of God is a mixed bag among biblical characters. There is Abraham, the model of obedience. God calls him to leave his homeland and he leaves. God calls him to sacrifice his son, and he rises early the next ...read more

    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.

    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.
