Message Notes-Gospel For All
Here are the notes to Pastor Steve’s message for week #1 of “Roar” on Sunday, September 13th, 2020. Feel free to print them and follow along during the online message at 9:55 a.m on Facebook.
Roar; a loud, deep sound uttered by a person or crowd, generally as an expression of pain, anger, or approval.
Jesus calls us to roar:
“Be light in a dark world.”
“Be salt in a culture that has lost its seasoning.”
“Be a light on a hill.”
Key Idea: Living Truth in a world of opinions.
The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: 2 “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.” 3 But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord. 4 Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up. 5 All the sailors were afraid and each cried out to his own god. Jonah 1:1-5
Then the word of the Lord came to Jonah a second time: 2 “Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message I give you.” 3 Jonah obeyed the word of the Lord and went to Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very large city; it took three days to go through it. 4 Jonah began by going a day’s journey into the city, proclaiming, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overthrown.” 5 The Ninevites believed God. A fast was proclaimed, and all of them, from the greatest to the least, put on sackcloth. Jonah 3:1-5
When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he (God) relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened. Jonah 3:10

I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity. 3 Now, Lord, take away my life, for it is better for me to die than to live.” 4 But the Lord replied, “Is it right for you to be angry?” Jonah 4:3-4
