Ridiculous Redemption (Johnson)

As we turn the page to the second chapter of Jonah we realize that the Lord was all about saving the Ninevites, but He was also about saving Jonah too. Did Jonah deserve to be saved? Nope. Did Jonah deserve to die in that body of water? Yep. But God had mercy on Jonah and sent a fish...a fish that would swallow him and then three days later, spit him up on the beach. Hmmmm...three days later salvation was brought to sinners? Sound familiar? It should! God is all about ridiculous rescues and has ...

Ridiculous Request (Johnson)

Jonah 1:1-5 Matthew 5:43-48 In this first message from Jonah’s first chapter, we come across one of the hallmarks of our Christian faith...namely , we love our enemies. Jonah’s reticence to go to Nineveh was because the Ninevites were sworn enemies of Israel and were furthermore horrible and heinous and violent people. But God takes horrible and heinous and violent people and redeems them and makes them His own. He’s not looking for perfect people to be in His kingdom because there are none...He...

Did God Create Evil? (Johnson)

James 1:12-15 John 8:42-44 This is a tough one for most people. They look around the world and see the suffering and pain. They recognize the evil that's present in everyone's heart...and presume, "If God created everything, then God created evil too." Today we will remember that evil is in the world because this world is infected with the disease of sin. But we will also remember that God never wanted it that way. God created the world to live and to live forever in the perfection and sinlessne...

Don't Hypocritical Christians Invalidate Christianity? (Johnson)

Romans 7:14-18 1 John 1:5-10 "Christians are hypocrites!" You hear that kind of thing a lot. And while most think we'd object to such a claim, we actually embrace it. Christians are hypocrites and liars and thieves and adulterers and prejudiced and angry and addicted...and , well, you fill in the blank with your "things." We are and fully admit to being...broken . Doesn't that invalidate Christianity? Nope. Christianity isn't dependent on good people, Christianity is dependent on a good God...wh...

Why Are Christians So Narrow-Minded? (Meyer)

Galatians 5:16-25 John 14:1-6 Christians are often called “narrow-minded” and to be honest, we have to admit that we are. Now, by that we don’t mean it’s okay to be mean...or hateful..or obnoxious...but the Bible does call us to singular thinking when it comes to who God is and what God does and how God operates. We hold fast to Jesus being the only way to heaven...but we do so because Jesus does. Call us “narrow” if you’d like...but Jesus remains, the only way, the only truth, and the only life...
