Jonah: The Relentless Love of God

Everybody knows Jonah got swallowed by a fish. Fewer remember the fish is barely the point. We’ll take the whole book slowly and find a God whose love is relentless, the kind that chases a runaway prophet across the sea and keeps reaching the people he’d rather it skipped. Because Jonah doesn’t run for fear God will fail. He runs for fear God will love the wrong people, and love them anyway. Come find out how far that love is willing to go.

Rev. Tom Hathaway - July 27, 2025

Faith Without Applause

Everyone’s heard of Rosa Parks. Fewer know Jo Ann Robinson—the quiet leader whose late-night flyer campaign sparked a 381-day bus boycott. And in Judges 4, everyone remembers Deborah and Jael, but few know what to make of Barak, the general who fought... but only after getting a push. This sermon explores what kind of leadership actually changes the world. Not the loudest voice. Not the one in the spotlight. But the faithful ones behind the scenes—who print the flyers, hold the line, carry the gear, and make space for others to shine. Turns out, that’s exactly the kind of greatness Jesus modeled.

Scripture References: Judges 4:1-31
