Steadfast Love: The Deep - Part 2

Series Title: Steadfast Love: A Story about Running Away

Sermon Title: The Deep (1:17-2:9)

Description: After being hurled into the raging sea to escape God's call, Jonah is snatched from the clutches of death by a miraculous, sovereign provision: a great fish appointed by the Lord. Safe inside its belly for three days and three nights, the prophet finally begins to pray.

Though Jonah weaves a beautiful prayer masterfully filled with the Hebrew Psalms, his actions tell a completely different story. He is quick to claim his own deliverance, yet his heart remains completely cold and closed to the idea of God showing that same mercy to his enemies. This striking message exposes the danger of drawing near to God with our lips while our hearts remain far from Him. Come discover how God's amazing grace meets us in our deepest self-inflicted ruins, and learn why what we say we believe must truly connect to how we live our lives.
