Jonah: Breaking Our Hearts of Selfishness and Uniting with God's Glory
Date and Time: This 8-session topical study will meet on Saturday mornings from 8:30-9:30. We will meet on 2/6, 2/20, 3/6, 3/20, 4/3, 4/17, 5/1, 5/15
Location: This study will be offered through this Zoom link
Overview:
Most of us like what God says, until we are called to action. Few figures illustrate that truth better than Jonah. Focused on the prophet rather than his prophecy, the story of Jonah gives us a picture of a man on the run due to his own selfish desires. Instead of showing mercy to his enemies, he determined to keep God's grace to himself rather than share it with those he considered undeserving. Can you relate?
Over the course of 8 verse-by-verse sessions, pastor and author Eric Mason expands our vision to see that Jonah's story is our own. It offers a profound glimpse into the conflict that occurs when God calls resistant believers to His mission. More importantly, it underscores the depths of His compassion not only in redeeming the lost, but redeeming those He has called to participate in His reconciling work.
So climb aboard and settle in as Eric reveals how God uses extraordinary circumstances to break our hearts of selfishness, convince us of His tender care, and unite our lives to His glory.
