The First Cast

Just imagine it......A preacher delivers a message to a sold out venue of 120,000 people. The majority of the people hear his message and repent. The preacher then walks off into the sunset with the theme from The Mandalorian playing in the background. Is this what happens in Jonah chapter 4? Take a listen as we close out our series on the book of Jonah.

Have you ever need a second chance? Sure you have, because we all need a second chance sometimes. The God of the Bible is the God of second chances. We find that Jonah gets a second chance to obey, and Nineveh gets a second chance to repent. Here, we find ourselves reminded that our merciful and gracious God often gives us a second chance if we repent and seek Him.

Guest speaker, Randy Fults, digs into Matthew 5:38-48, and discusses "Divine Principles for Daily Living."

The story of Jonah has been told, and retold, thousands of times. Jonah being swallowed by the fish is certainly an exciting part of the story, however, if we focus on the fish we miss so much! In between Jonah being swallowed and spit out we find God's sovereignty, grace, and mercy, along with Jonah's stubbornness,  unrepentant heart, and dead theology. Dive into chapter two with us, but don't focus on the fish too much. 

Jonah thought he knew better than God. God said "go" and Jonah said "no." Instead of obeying God, Jonah ran. We have probably all ran from God at some point in our lives. However, our disobedience always brings a storm into our lives, and our storms impact the other people in our ship.

What is going to happen in the future? What is to come? What happen's when we die? Every worldview has to answer these questions. Find out in this concluding message of the series, "A Christian Worldview."

We know that something is wrong with the world, but how do we fix it? We understand that we are broken people who have lost our way, but what is the cure? The Christian worldview not only diagnoses man's fundamental problem, it also offers the solution. The cure and solution to our predicament is grace, which comes through the person of Jesus Christ alone!

All is not right with the world. Why is that? How do we make sense of evil, suffering and conflict? The Christian worldview provides an answer. 

Every worldview must account for life's biggest questions. When it comes to the questions of  "who am I", "why am I here",  and "how can we know right and wrong" we find that Christianity teaches that we were created by a loving God, to give Him glory, and that God provides a solid foundation for morality. In this message we go all the way back to the beginning in order to see how the doctrine of creation informs our Christian worldview in both a theological and practical way.

What is a worldview? What is your worldview? Did you know, that your worldview touches every area of life? Everyone has a worldview and sometimes our worldview collides with that of other people. It is war of the worldviews out there! Join us for part one of the series, "A Christian Worldview."
