God I Told You So

Mar 16, 2025    Pastor Glenn Gilpin

In this powerful exploration of the book of Jonah, we're reminded that God is the ultimate author of our stories. The central message revolves around God's boundless grace and compassion, even when we struggle to understand or accept it. As we delve into Jonah's anger over God's mercy towards Nineveh, we're challenged to examine our own hearts. Are there people or groups we'd exclude from God's grace? This sermon urges us to trust in God's compassion, give thanks for His grace, and share it with others – even those we might consider undeserving. The parallels drawn between Jonah's attitude and our own potential biases serve as a sobering reminder of our human limitations in understanding God's vast love. This message is deeply relevant to our faith journey, pushing us to align our hearts with God's and to embrace His sovereign plan, even when it doesn't match our expectations.
