In this service, Pastor Eric wraps up the sermon series, Still Here: When Holding On Is Holy Enough, a four-week journey through the Hebrew Bible with people who had reached the end of themselves. We immerse ourselves in the story of Jonah.
In this passage, we sit with a prophet who is furious — not because God was harsh, but because God was merciful to the "wrong people." It's a story about what happens when grace reaches past the line we would have drawn, and whether we can bear it. Join us as we hold that question together, and carry it toward the work of reckoning and renewing that lies ahead of us.
Accompanying scriptures are Psalm 145:1-8, Philippians 1:21-30, and Matthew 20:1-16.
