Give

The people of Nineveh heard the Word of the Lord and responded with repentance. We can learn many lessons from their response to God's Word, and their response provides a helpful outline for repentance. We must live lives of repentance and seek to grow every day into a greater level of Christlikeness.

God's Gracious Mercy

March 26, 2023 • Todd Fletcher • Jonah 4:5–11

Jonah's anger towards the Lord's mercy hits a fever pitch when he says he has every right to be angry. The root issue for Jonah, and the Jews, is that they had come to believe they deserved God's grace and mercy. The lesson God seeks to teach Jonah, though, is that He is free to give mercy to whomever He wishes.

Anger Towards God

March 19, 2023 • Todd Fletcher • Jonah 4:1–4

In a surprising response to God's mercy towards Nineveh, Jonah directs his anger towards God. He reveals his original reason for fleeing to Tarshish, which is based upon his dislike of God's character. In this sermon, we will learn to importance of loving who God is and trusting what God does.

Say What God Says

March 5, 2023 • Todd Fletcher • Jonah 3:1–5

When Jonah is put back on God's path and is given a second chance, God commands Jonah to call out the message that God would give to him. Jonah's message carries a call of destruction, but God intends to overthrow Nineveh through reformation rather than destruction.
