Starting Well [Let Your Life Verify Your Faith]
Jan 18, 2026 • Wade Bishop
The sermon explored God's commission to Jonah a second time to preach to Nineveh, and this time Jonah obeyed. What unfolded was remarkable—an entire city, from the king to the cattle, turned from their evil ways and genuinely repented before God. This passage reveals God's heart for the lost and challenges us to examine whether our lives truly verify the faith we profess. Genuine faith doesn't just save us; it changes us. Real faith is conversion, not just confession. The Ninevites didn't merely speak words of repentance—they demonstrated it through their actions, and God relented from the disaster He had planned.
