    Four keys to a life that makes a difference for God: 1. The faith we must embrace (vs. 38-40). 2. The future we must face (vs. 41-42). 3. A fight we must win (vs. 43-45). 4. The family we must belong to (vs. 46-50).

    In the end, God prevails and Jonah misses the point. The book ends with our graceful and merciful God reconciled with the city turned around and our not so heroic prophet still angry. BUT Jesus still calls him, His Prophet!!

    Matthew 12:38-41 (NKJV) “He is Greater” The Seeker (Teacher, we want to see a sign from You) The “Seeker Sensitive” Church (God does not hide – If you seek you shall find) Romans 3:11 quotes Psalm 14 “There is none who understands; There is none who seeks after God.” John 6:26, Jesus answered ...read more

    The Stubborn Missionary

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 16, 2021
     | 2,464 views

    More than Jonah could ever understand, Jesus reveals the greatness of God’s mercy. God’s mercy is for sinners. His mercy is for Jews, it’s for Gentiles, it’s for people of ever nation, for all who seek him.

    What does someone do when they’ve been rescued from great danger—pulled from a burning house, or saved from drowning? Or how does a person act after his life’s been spared: when he should’ve been killed, but someone had mercy? A natural response is the desire to tell people about it. Because what’s ...read more

    God Of Mission

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 17, 2021
     | 2,896 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

    We may not see Christ's triumphant presence in our lives, but He will give us the grace of faith to know that He is always here.

    Monday of 16th Week in Course Evil and adulterous generations are always seeking signs. That is to say, people who resist the call of Jesus say, “I’ll reform my ways when I see something that unequivocally tells me that I’m wrong.” They are looking for crosses in the sky, or thunderous voices ...read more

    A house divided, the unpardonable sin, the sign of Jonah, and our place as the brethren of Jesus.

    A DEMON CAST OUT. Matthew 12:22-50. The spiritual blindness of the people opposed to Jesus is demonstrated in their reaction to His good works. Their refusal to hear His message is echoed in their speaking out against Him. MATTHEW 12:22. A demon-possessed man, who was physically both blind ...read more
