Jonah had a massive ministry, but a sinful heart. Malcolm completes our series in Jonah chapter 4 showing us how Jonah was a work in progress and so are we. Jonah is a great story with so many insights into our heart attitudes, God's compassion and His relentlessness to forgive those who repent. The Lord is a God of boundless compassion not just for ‘us' (the people of God) but for everyone. Jonah is the object of God's compassion throughout the book but so also are the pagan sailors and the Ninevites. At the end is the question – “Should I not pity Ninevah?” this leaves us with the question – Do we have hearts of compassion for others, like God does? Jonah at times seems way more concerned with the plant that perished (4:10) than with concern for the Ninevites. This incredible compassionate character of God is contrasted with Jonah's compassion, yet rather than leave Jonah to his whims, God even extends compassion to him, using him as a vessel to see his compassion enacted in the world, just like we should today.

In this series finale, Chris looks at Nehemiah chapter 13, perhaps one of the most depressing chapters of the bible. Here Nehemiah, has returned to Jerusalem to see how the people of God are getting on. Incredibly, much that he had established they've given up on. Just like Nehemiah, Jesus will return also, and this chapter is a great reminder for us to keep trusting in God always. In the book of Nehemiah we find the city of David, Jerusalem, in ruins. In lots of ways it was due to failings over many years, of the people of God, to trust, follow and serve Him. Even after God continually draws them back to him; is patient, slow to anger and abounding in love, they persist in their sin and find themselves and their city in ruins. But God is about a great work of restoration, in their lives and in our lives today.

Simon preached through Nehemiah chapters 11 and 12 looking at the cost of building with God.

Having not lived according to God's word for hundreds of years, Nehemiah chapter 10 draws the people to pay attention to 3 key areas of life. Malcom unpacks what it means for us to pay attention to our marriages, sabbath rest and giving to the church. like verse 39 encourages, let us "never neglect the house of our God". In the book of Nehemiah we find the city of David, Jerusalem, in ruins. In lots of ways it was due to failings over many years, of the people of God, to trust, follow and serve Him. Even after God continually draws them back to him; is patient, slow to anger and abounding in love, they persist in their sin and find themselves and their city in ruins.
