What we pray for reveals who we are. Jonah 3:10-4:11 highlights the contrast between Jonah's heart and the Lord's. 

The Spirit's work among the Ninevites teaches us what genuine revival actually looks like, and challenges us in our own ministry here in Nashville. 

We all know what it's like to long for what we don't have. In 2 Cor. 5:1-4, we see what we all long for the most, where it's available, and how we can get it. 

When God's people repent of their rebellion against Him, He is faithful to rescue them. 

In Jonah 1:4-17, we see two different ways of responding to God's Word: stubborn rebellion and submissive fear. Which is more characteristic of your own response to the Sovereign God?

The Book of Jonah is ultimately a message of God's mercy toward all, even the bird-brained, the depraved, and the calloused. Christians have the privilege of stewarding this message of mercy as we proclaim it to the lost. 

The hope of heaven sets our mission as a local church. It shapes the message we share with others, and the life we share together.

You do have to grieve. But you don’t have to grieve without hope.

How do you not lose heart when there are so many reasons to? You need to know that heaven is where you are going, and suffering is how you will get there.

There is no peace without hope, and no hope without heaven.
