Jonah's Errand: Not Them

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/05/12

Not them, Lord. Not them. Was it racism? Was it nationalism? Something in Jonah’s heart could not accept the prospect of a Ninevite brother in the family. Families must be models of acceptance and grace. We celebrate the family today. With each new generation we accept new brothers and sisters in faith in Christ. I love stories of mothers who know how to bring new family members into the fold with open arms. The church should be like that. Speaker: Tim McConnell

Jonah's Errand: Who Knows?

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/05/05

How amazing is God’s grace? There are none who are so far from Christ that they cannot hear His voice, turn and live. Do you share Jesus with expectation that the person in front of you may soon be your eternal brother or sister in Christ? Can you see the unseen future of the lost being found and finding a new identity in Christ? There are amazing stories of conversion and revival. But every testimony is amazing! Are we truly ready to accept new believers into our community, or do we think, “They

Jonah's Errand: At the Bottom

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/04/28

Does grace run out? Is there a bottom to God’s grace? When we hit rock bottom, we only find that God is still beneath us lifting us up. Prayer reaches the Father’s ears. The Spirit inflates us and we rise from the depths. How can it be that God knows these darkened depths? Jesus has been lower still. Jonah’s journey is a parable of Jesus. When Pharisees demanded a sign from Jesus to certify His authority, Jesus said there would be no sign but the Sign of Jonah. (Matthew 12:38-41) Something greater

Jonah's Errand: My Life for Them

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/04/21

In one way or another, you will spend your life. The question is what will you spend it on. Jonah realized they were all doomed if he did not change course. He realized that death was coming over all of them, including himself. There was no more choosing. There was only one thing to do—give his life for theirs’. At that moment, he was willing to die to save the lives of the shipmates. Jesus said there is no greater love (John 15:13). Jonah may have done it more out of desperation than love, but he

Jonah's Errand: Running from God

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/04/14

What is your first reaction to God’s purposes in your life? Do you embrace them? Even the hard things? God had an errand for Jonah—go and preach grace to the citizens of Nineveh; go and preach love to your enemies. Jonah probably had a list of reasons in his own mind why he got on a boat to flee in the opposite direction. We are given an errand today. Go and preach forgiveness to the ends of the earth (Luke 24:47); make disciples of all people (Matthew 28:19). How do we respond? Speaker: Tim

All for Love: Love Eternal

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/04/07

What does it mean to have eternal life? It means you are in the love of God. Love goes on forever. As Paul said, hope lasts only as long as you are waiting for what you are hoping for. Faith lasts only until you know by sight the thing you once believed without seeing. But love. Love goes on forever and only grows greater. To put your faith in Christ is to be in Christ, in His love, which goes on and on and on. People ask, “Am I safe?” We want to be safe, and to create safety for others. The one

All for Love: God So Loved

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/03/31

The cross is the culmination of Jesus’ mission of love. The only way that God could be both just and the justifier of sinners, both righteous and the forgiver of rebels, is to send His own Son to pay the due penalty for our error and rebellion. God would not do that unless He loved us. God so loved the world, so loved the fallen, rebellious, spiteful world, that He gave His Son, His only Son. That Son is Jesus who died for us on the cross. That Jesus was laid in a tomb outside of Jerusalem. That

All for Love: Can You See?

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/03/24

On Palm Sunday, Jesus came into Jerusalem on the back of a donkey. Many crowded around singing “Hosanna!” Everyone wanted to see Jesus. Can you see Jesus? In this conversation with Nicodemus, Jesus says something has to happen before you can see. You must be born again from above, born again spiritually, fundamentally transformed and regenerated. Like a baby that opens its eyes for the first time, when you believe in Jesus the Spirit of God opens your eyes to see. People ask, “Am I enough? Do I have

All for Love: Truth and Love

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/03/17

Jesus was forceful about removing the marketeers from the House of the Lord. The disciples were no doubt embarrassed and concerned. I wonder if they made up excuses for Jesus. “Honestly, He’s never like this!” Love and truth are connected. Sometimes love looks like this. Love removes what is damaging and perverse to return your life to right relationship with God. Jesus is willing to stand for truth. People today want to ask, like Pilate did, “What is truth?” Jesus stood for truth and love; grace

All for Love: People Matter

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/03/10

Jesus turned water into wine. Jesus loved being Jesus. He must have! Look at how much fun He has. It was not a parlor trick. It reveals how invested Jesus is in people and the problems they have. Jesus is invested in us the same way. We ask, “Do all people matter to God?” Here is a seemingly insignificant young couple getting married. Jesus cared enough to expose His power and threaten His agenda. All people matter to God, and all their worries and cares matter too. God loves people all the way

All for Love: Trust Me

First Pres Colorado Springs Sermons (Video) ·

2024/03/03

When Jesus called His disciples to follow Him, they were moved to drop everything and follow. The conviction was immediate. We have a hard time trusting. Trust is a big deal. You have to earn it. It takes time to build up and can be destroyed in an instant. How did these men and women trust Jesus so quickly? People ask “Can I trust you?” They want someone to trust. Jesus is worthy of all our trust. His love and faithfulness are sure. Speaker: Tim McConnell
