Jonah's disobedience brought danger in a storm. Jesus' obedience brought peace. And on the cross, He stepped into the ultimate storm—God's wrath—that we deserved. Now every storm in your life isn't punishment but a merciful reminder that God hasn't let you go.

Biblical response to tragedy

The Rising September 17, 2025 4:18 pm

In this sermon, Pastor David explores the Book of Jonah, focusing on the first three verses. He explains that Jonah is not merely a children's story about a big fish, but a profound narrative about God's mercy and our resistance to His call. Jonah was uniquely sent as a prophet to preach to Nineveh, a wicked gentile city, which would be comparable to sending a Jewish preacher to Nazi Germany. When God clearly commanded Jonah to go to Nineveh, Jonah instead fled in the opposite direction to Tarshish. The pastor connects this to our own tendencies to run from God's uncomfortable calls on our lives, whether through delay, busyness, or compromise. The sermon also addresses recent tragic events, including the assassination of Charlie Kirk, emphasizing that as Christians we must respond not with fear or hate but with truth, grace, and love, recognizing that our hope is in Jesus alone.

In My Father's House Luke 2:41-50

In this sermon from Romans 12:3-8, Pastor Jonathan explores three key responsibilities of the Christian life. He begins by discussing our mindset, emphasizing the importance of humility in how we think about ourselves. Rather than being consumed with self-importance, Christians are called to recognize that everything they have is a gift from God's grace. The second responsibility concerns our membership in Christ's body, where we are called to live in unity despite our differences. This unity isn't uniformity but a oneness that reflects Christ and serves as a powerful witness to the world. Finally, Jonathan addresses our ministry, explaining that God has given each believer unique spiritual gifts that are meant to be used, not hidden or compared with others. These gifts include prophecy, service, teaching, exhortation, giving, leading, and showing mercy - all designed to build up the church and advance God's mission.
