Steadfast Love: The Word - Part 3

Series Title: Steadfast Love: A Story about Running Away 

Sermon Title: The Word (2:10-3:10)

Description: After being vomited out of the great fish onto dry land, the word of the Lord comes to Jonah a second time. This second chance is a profound testament to God’s enduring patience, reminding us of the devastating and costly nature of our disobedience. This time, Jonah arises and goes to Nineveh according to the Word.

What follows is a powerful study in contrasts. When the warning of judgment reaches Nineveh, the pagan nation—from the greatest to the least, including the king himself—believes God, fasts, and humbles themselves in radical repentance. While God's prophet pridefully resists the message he carries, the broken world around him eagerly yields to it. Join us as we marvel at a sovereign God who rules over both the massive kingdoms of men and the smallest details of creation, and learn what it truly means to receive and obey His Word.
