The Relentless Grace of God

August 27, 2023 Speaker: John Ferguson Series: Jonah: Grace Runs Deep

Scripture: Jonah 3:1–10

08.27.23 Updated Sermon GraphicThis week we continue our journey through the ancient book of Jonah. 

In this week's study, we'll see Jonah doing what he dreaded most -- namely, walking into the ancient terrorist state the Assyrian Empire right into the heart of its military capital, Nineveh.

And there he speaks the words God had given him to speak, and the unbelievable happens. 

No, Jonah doesn't get captured and tortured. He isn't skinned alive (as the Assyrians loved to do). 

In fact, the exact opposite happens. 

God sheds his amazing grace upon this ancient empire from the least to the greatest. 

What can we learn from this? And what does this have if anything to do with the message that Jesus proclaimed about the coming Kingdom of God? And how do we apply this to our lives?
