In this second Saturday of Advent sermon, we look at how the coming of Jesus brings peace in a world of chaos.

In a season that promises us hope that ultimately does not satisfy our longings, we can find true and ultimate hope in the first coming of Jesus. Luke 2:21-38 helps us see that.

In the final chapter of the book, God tells Jonah why He has chosen to forgive Nineveh. In this sermon we look at why God wants cities to be redeemed with the gospel and how we can become people who join Him in this mission.

For Orphan Sunday, we will look to the Bible to consider specific ways that followers of Jesus live out their faith in Jesus by the works that they do. James specifically mentions caring for orphans in the context of being doers of the word and not just hearers of the word. We'll examine specific ways we do that at Providence Road.

There are a lot of things that compete for our attention. But there is one thing that deserves our full attention, the person and work of Jesus. In this passage packed full of truth we learn why Jesus deserves our full attention.

We often see repentance as a negative thing and avoid it, or we go about it the wrong way. In this chapter of Jonah, we see the Ninevites go through a process of repentance that is common throughout Scripture. A life of consistent repentance gives us the opportunity to experience freedom and joy on a consistent basis.

In His mercy, God gives extra chances to undeserving people. However, even though we might know facts about God's mercy there are often barriers that prevent us from applying His mercy to ourselves and others. We look at two of these barriers as we walk through Jonah 3.

Chapter 2 of Jonah should haunt us and shake us out of our spiritual sleepiness because we are so often just like Jonah in regards to disobedience. It should also encourage us through because despite a glaring lack of merit, Jonah still experiences the mercy of God and is given a heart to declare in thankfulness, “Salvation comes from the Lord.”
