09/18/20 • 26 min

In the 18th chapter of Matthew, Jesus calls for the extraordinarily difficult work of forgiveness without exception. It is grounded in hope for restoration of broken people and relationships, but does not mean leaving ourselves vulnerable to the wrongs themselves. The Gospel presents a vision of release that frees us to live life fully.

In the third and fourth chapters of Jonah, we encounter the prophet Jonah in a fit of rage when God chooses to show mercy to the people of the great city of Nineveh after their repentance. Guest preacher Rev. Barbara Rossing highlights the gospel message of repentance and salvation in the story of Nineveh. This story tells us that heeding prophesy in this urgent moment can also avert disaster through amazing change.
