Listening Well To The King

Zechariah and Elizabeth give birth to John which brings great joy to all because John the Baptist is the forerunner of the Messiah.

Jonah ends with God asking Jonah a powerful question: Shouldn't I SHED TEARS for such a great city? Today, our priorities seem to be off.  God's heart is broken over the not yet redeemed... likewise, our hearts need to be broken for the lost.

Jonah is angry at God for gracing the evil Assyrians.  Jonah was not grasped by grace.  So odd for a preacher not to rejoice in the repentance of Nineveh. We all need to be grasped by grace.

Jonah listens to God, preaches His Word and the whole city repents.  God uses flawed messengers proclaiming the inspired Word of God to change our culture.

God extends grace to Jonah by having him swallowed by a great fish.  Jonah knew that salvation comes from the Lord... but after spending some time in the belly Jonah KNOWS that salvation comes from the Lord ALONE.

God extends his grace to those part of his family and those not yet redeemed.  Pastor Rick teaches from Jonah 1:7-17, a text which is an amazing Gospel text.

Jonah sinned and God sent a storm.  Storms can shipwreck us or grow us.  God uses storms in all of our lives. Pastor Rick preached this message to CrossPoint Church.

Pastor Rick teaches from 2 Corinthians 12:14-13:10 where Paul pours out his heart.  Paul knows that the church is God's Plan A and that God uses a church that is unified and pure to accomplish His mission and draw people to Himself.  We all probably need to grow in the area of repentance.

Pastor Rick teaches from 2 Corinthians 11:30-12:10.  Paul boasts about his weaknesses and shares that when he is weak, then he is truly strong.  God's power and glory shows up when Paul depends on God.

Pastor Rick teaches from 2 Corinthians 11:1-29 where Paul shares he is jealous for the Corinth Church like God is jealous for us.  Powerful text about the Jealousy of God and shepherds.
