The promise of Jesus' return has been a source of hope and anticipation for believers throughout history. But what does the Bible actually say about his second coming, and how should we live in light of this promise? In the "Coming Soon" message series by Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., we explore Scripture’s teachings on Christ’s return, examining what it means for our lives today and our hope for the future. We tackle questions about signs of His coming, the urgency of sharing the gospel, and how to live with a heart prepared and focused on His Kingdom. Join us as we grow in faith, eager for the day when Jesus will come again to make all things new.

Ever tried running from something God asked you to do? You’re not alone. Jonah did more than drag his feet—he bought a one-way ticket in the opposite direction. Yet, through storms, sailors, and even a giant fish, Jonah discovered what we all need to know: you can’t outrun God’s love.

This five-part series from Preaching Minister Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., dives into one of the Bible’s most surprising stories—a prophet who said “no,” a city no one thought could change, and a God whose mercy refuses to quit. Along the way, we’ll wrestle with tough questions: Who are the “Ninevites” in our lives? How do we respond when God calls us to love the unlovable? And what does Jonah’s messy, unfinished story reveal about our own?

Join us as we explore Jonah’s story of rebellion and redemption—and discover the relentless mercy of a God who never stops pursuing His people.
