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.

Guilty. Now Let's Pray.

Romans 13 has been used to justify slavery, the Third Reich, apartheid, and family separation at the US border. It's the text progressive Christians quietly avoid — and that silence, it turns out, hands the passage over to exactly the people who've done the most damage with it. This sermon goes straight in: the Greek, the history, Paul's actual situation, and the question of what you do when a text has been turned against your neighbors. There are at least two honest ways through it. You might find a third. Either way, you won't be pretending it isn't there anymore.

Scripture References: Romans 13:1-10
