The sermon will come from Amos, a challenging book that exposes the disconnect between Israel’s worship and the way they lived. Rather than surveying the whole book, we’ll look at three observations that still challenge us today (especially on Thanksgiving weekend): they had plenty, but they weren’t grateful; they worshipped, but they weren’t obedient; they were blessed, but they weren’t a blessing. Amos reminds us that gratitude is more than words — it shapes how we receive God’s gifts, how we treat others, and what we do with what God has entrusted to us. We’ll finish with a brief congregational response built around these three themes and then read Amos 5:24 together: “But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream."

Return: Jonah
This sermon will introduce us to the prophet Jonah, whom God sends to Ninevah, the capital of Israel's most feared and violent enemy. We'll explore how God's mercy reaches farther than we expect, extending even to those we would consider enemies. Other themes that could be explored include resentment towards outsiders, nationalism that limits God's compassion, and the challenge of wanting justice for others but mercy for ourselves.

Return: Joel
In this sermon we will meet the prophet Joel as he addresses Israel when a devastating locust plague has ravaged the land and left the nation in crisis. Special focus will be given to Joel 2:12-17 and the call of the Lord to return to Him. We'll consider how God is able to use crisis and disruption to awake His people and call them back to genuine repentance. Themes that could be touched on include spiritual complacency, genuine repentance, returning to God rather than merely fixing circumstances, and responding to hardship with humility rather than bitterness.
