How Good is He

March 26, 2023 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Jonah 3

Imperfection is our reality. We all have struggles, messes, pains, and pasts. Thank God for His mercy! How good is He? How faithful is He to forgive? He is the God of second chances. No matter where you are in life or where you've been, God has and is mercifully calling you back to His presence and His purposes. When you hear His calling, how will you respond?

Living With the Heart of the Father

April 2, 2023 • Pastor Dave Engbrecht • Jonah 4

Does what concerns God concern you? It’s easy to get caught up in urgent concerns. It’s quite normal to let small things consume and concern us while the biggest and most important things slip off our radar. The story of Jonah is about allowing God’s concerns to become our concerns. It’s about letting His heart become our heart. It’s all about a heart of compassion for the lost and the irreligious. What concerns God should concern us.

The Ultimate Chess Match

March 19, 2023 • Pastor Dave Engbrecht • Jonah 2

What is it that’s holding me back from being all that I could be? What barriers might exist to keep me from God’s best? Where are the blind spots in my life? What’s the hard battle that I must win? Jonah, in the belly of the large fish, faces a defining moment of absolute surrender to God’s best. Just as he faced that moment of truth, we face it, too. It’s the ultimate chess match.

A Prophet, Some Pagans, and a Really Big Fish

March 12, 2023 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Jonah 1

It is a literary feat that the incredibly small book of Jonah contains such an extraordinary epic. There are many deep insights and themes to glean from the four short chapters. On the surface, Jonah is the story of a prophet who runs from God’s calling on his life, but in reality, this book is about a merciful God.
