Mercy: Jonah 4 | A Prophet’s Pity, God’s Compassion
Jonah ends not with triumph, but with tension. The final chapter reveals a prophet angry about mercy, a God abounding in compassion, and a question that confronts us all: do we share God’s heart?
As we conclude our series in Jonah, this sermon challenges us to examine our own responses to God's grace. Do we rejoice when the lost are found? Or do we, like Jonah, resist the wideness of God's mercy?

The Wrong Direction: Jonah 1 | When God Pursues the Runaway
Jonah didn’t just hesitate when God called — he ran the opposite way. But God pursued him through a storm, a ship, and even the sea. In this sermon on Jonah 1, Pastor Mark invites us to consider not only Jonah’s flight but our own.
