The focus isn’t Jonah and the fish but Jonah and God. It isn’t about mere physical survival but spiritual revival. Jonah is desperate; and like most desperate people, he turns to God. From the nothingness of the belly of the fish, Jonah reconnects with the God he rejected.
Most of us have the capacity to make stupid choices and look back and say, “I can’t believe I did that.” All of us need, at one time or another, a second chance. Over the course of this summer pastor Brett Moore will teach from the book of Jonah and share how even when we run, Jesus runs after us.

The Gospel According to Jonah
July 15, 2018 • Brent Allen
We’re all great sinners and God is a great Savior. There are three themes that should be seen that are the main motifs of the story. A.) The expansiveness of our sin B.) The expansiveness of God’s grace c.) The expansiveness of God’s mission. God has a heart for people of every race, every background, every age, and every social status. Most of us have the capacity to make stupid choices and look back and say, “I can’t believe I did that.” All of us need, at one time or another, a second chance.

Great Forgiveness / Greater Love
July 8, 2018 • Brett Moore
The irony of the story is that Jonah emerges as the chief antagonist. No one in the story deserves God’s grace and mercy less; no one deserves God’s anger more. When you’ve been forgiven much, the right response to God is always love and obedience. Most of us have the capacity to make stupid choices and look back and say, “I can’t believe I did that.” All of us need, at one time or another, a second chance. Over the course of this summer pastor Brett Moore will teach from the book of Jonah and share how even when we run, Jesus runs after us.
Who Knows?

The Gospel shows that we win by losing, we triumph through defeat, we achieve power through service, and we become rich by giving ourselves away. The Gospel is good news for losers. Jesus lived the life we losers couldn’t live and died the death we losers should’ve died.
