Jonah Episode 4: The Resentful Prophet

Thursday, September 4th, 2008

An amazing miracle has happened as an entire NATION of people drops to its knees in unified repentance to the one true God. It’s every pastor’s BEST dream, but the prophet Jonah… sits. And whines. Seems a bit anti-climactic for the end of the book, like a overly-hip indie film. What we see is that [...]

Tuesday, August 26th, 2008

by Pastor James Harleman
As our 4-week series on Jonah continues, a fish pukes… and the prophet rebukes. If a piece of walking, talking vomit stumbled into town and said you’ve only got forty days before God cuts you down, what would you do? Laugh? Get on your knees? I’d listen to the vomit if I [...]

A Life Marked by Discipline
By Pastor James Harleman
Why do we need discipline when Bill and Ted, Wayne and Garth, Napoleon Dynamite all came out on top? I was raised to believe the goof-off makes good, gets the girl, and saves the world! I just have to be good at video games and I’ll be The [...]



Put to Death, Put to Life

Tuesday, February 12th, 2008

By Pastor James Harleman
It was that perilous time between Christmas and New Years Eve… a time for returning presents, holiday parties, trying to get in all the last minute things you swore you’d get done in 2007, and then changing the date on most of them to 2008. Sunday the 30th I was slated to [...]

Ever find that present or stocking stuffer after the holidays are over and the decorations have all come down? Maybe you shouldn’t have left it in the coat closet behind the umbrellas.
