A Great Lesson
from Citadel Hosted by Citadel
WELCOME TO THE CITADEL CHURCH ONLINE!We are so excited to connect with you this week! We pray you are blessed and that you find a place to belong here in our community. This week, we close out our Jonah series with one of the Bible’s most surprising classrooms: a sulking prophet, a leafy plant, a hungry worm, and the blazing Middle Eastern sun. In Jonah 4:5-11, God confronts Jonah’s anger, prejudice, and misplaced compassion and teaches a lesson that still echoes into our own hearts today. Why did Jonah want grace for himself but wrath for Nineveh? How do our prejudices reveal where our hearts need the Gospel? What does it mean that Jesus “went outside the city” - not to condemn but to save? Jonah wanted to watch Nineveh burn. Jesus came to save it. Join us as we explore how God’s relentless compassion confronts our comfort, breaks our bitterness, and calls us to love those we’d least expect. “The book of Jonah ends with a question mark—because God is asking us: Will you love people who are different from you?” Listen now and discover why We Are Jonah. Each week, we gather to worship Jesus, open Scripture, and lean into what God is saying to us as a church. Whether you're part of the Citadel family or just checking things out, we’re so glad you're here. These messages are designed to help you follow Jesus in everyday life and be part of something bigger—His Kingdom. FIND OUT MORE ABOUT US: Website: www.citadelnyc.church Instagram: citadelnyc_church
