August 3rd, 2025 - Jonah, V

In the final sermon of our Jonah series, Pastor Ryan brings us to the prophet’s sulking seat outside Nineveh—where Jonah pouts under a vine, wanting God’s justice to look like his own bitterness. But God’s grace stretches wider than Jonah’s anger, wider than our categories of us and them. Like Jonah, we may show up without growing up, content with “good enough,” yet God keeps working in us, nudging us toward transformation. Jonah’s story ends with a question, because our stories are still unfolding: will we keep crossing our arms at the edge of grace, or will we join God in a redemption story that includes everyone—even the people we’d rather exclude?
