Jonah: The Big Picture

Paul Tripp has begun his tenure as the regular evening preacher at Tenth Presbyterian, following such worthies as Rick Phillips and Aaron Messner.  He opened on Sunday with an overview sermon on the Book of Jonah, which he presented as a complete biblical worldview in 48 verses.  Here were his points:

1. A God of awesome glory is at the center of everything.
2. This world is terribly broken by sin, both corporately and individually.
3. Human beings were created for transcendency -- a purpose higher than ourselves.
4. For all our brokennes, God is a God of unrelenting, transforming grace.
