人生を変える瞬間がやってくる・A Defining Moment Is Coming
<p>映画には、物語が大きく動き出す瞬間があります。マルコ5章でも、悪霊に苦しめられていた一人の男性がイエスと出会い、その人生は永遠に変えられました。私たちも人生の中で、進むべき道を決める「人生を変える瞬間」を迎えます。その時、本当の敵を見極め、イエスがあなたの物語のヒーローであることを信頼するなら、今の困難は神の力を証しするストーリーへと変えられます。あなたが今日向き合っている問題は、神があなたの人生に力強く働かれる始まりなのかもしれません。ぜひ今週のメッセージをご覧ください。</p><p>Every great story has a moment when everything changes. In Mark 5, a man whose life had been consumed by darkness encountered Jesus, and everything changed. We all face defining moments that require us to respond. In those moments, recognizing our true enemy and trusting Jesus as the hero of our story changes everything. The challenge you're facing today doesn't have to define your future! It can become a testimony of God's power at work in your life. Your defining moment may be closer than you think.

植物と魚と神の心 ・The Plant, the Fish, and the Heart of God
<p>ヨナの物語は、神様から逃げる人間と、それでも追いかけ続ける神様の心を描いています。嵐、大きな魚、そして小さな植物を通して、神様はヨナの優先順位を整え、人は神様よりも自分の快適さや感情に引っ張られやすいことを示されます。最終的にこの物語は、神様の心が常に人に向いていることを明らかにします。</p><p>このメッセージは、最初から神様に従うこと、小さなことに心を奪われないこと、そして人を神様の目で見ることへのチャレンジです。神様の心に合わせて生きることが問われています。</p><p><br></p><p>ヨナ1–4章、ヨナ4:6–11、従順、悔い改め、神のあわれみ、第二のチャンス、神の心、人への関心、嵐、大魚、植物、虫、風、逃避、召命、分岐点</p><p><br></p><p>Jonah’s story reveals a God who pursues people even when they run. Through a storm, a great fish, and a small plant, God reshapes Jonah’s priorities and exposes how easily the human heart drifts toward comfort, control, and personal preference. In the end, the story highlights God’s deep concern for people above everything else.</p><p><br></p><p>This message challenges obedience from the first step, awareness of small distractions that slowly shift direction, and seeing people through God’s eyes rather than personal bias or comfort. It is a call to align the heart with God’s heart.</p><p><br></p><p>Jonah 1–4, Jonah 4:6–11, obedience, mercy, repentance, God’s heart for people, second chances, distraction, comfort, calling, storm, great fish, plant, worm, wind, running from God, reluctant prophet.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>For more information about Hope Alive, please check out our </strong><a href="http://hopealive.jp/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>website</strong></a><strong>. </strong></p><p><strong>ホープアライブについて、こちらの</strong><a href="https://hopealive.jp/?lang=ja" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>リンク</strong></a><strong>をご覧ください。 </strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>If you would like prayer or to contact one of our pastors, please </strong><a href="https://hopealive.jp/connect/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>click here: </strong></a></p><p><strong>祈ってもらいたいことがある方または牧師とご相談されたい方</strong><a href="https://hopealive.jp/%e6%8e%a5%e7%b6%9a%e3%81%99%e3%82%8b/?lang=ja" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>こちら</strong></a><strong>へお問い合わせください</strong></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Click here to subscribe to our channel to see more messages</strong></p><p><strong>ホープアライブのYouTubeチャンネルをぜひ登録していただきメッセージをお聞きください</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/hopealive" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.youtube.com/hopealive</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Click here to Follow us on social media </strong></p><p><strong>ぜひSNSで登録してください</strong></p><p><a href="http://hopealive.jp/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Hopealive.jp </strong></a></p><p><a href="http://facebook.com/hopealivejp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Facebook</strong></a><strong> </strong></p><p><a href="http://instagram.com/hopealivejp" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Instagram</strong></a></p><p><a href="http://youtube.com/hopealive" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>YouTube</strong></a></p><p><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@hopealivejp?_t=8b2gTkT6yCQ&_r=1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>TikTok</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p>Thanks so much to Jared Brummitt for producing today’s podcast.

危険な信仰 ・Unsafe Faith
<p>嵐の中でも平安を持つことはできるのでしょうか？今週のメッセージでは、マルコ4章にある弟子たちとイエス様の物語から、信仰について学びます。激しい嵐の中で弟子たちは恐れに支配されましたが、イエス様は変わることなく舟の中におられました。問題が神様の約束より大きく見える時でも、神様を信頼することが信仰です。神様の約束に目を向けること、見えないところでも神様が働いておられること、そして結果が見える前から平安を持てることについて一緒に考えます。 あなたが今どんな嵐の中にいたとしても、その状況は神様が信仰を成長させるために用いられる機会かもしれません。神様は今も働いておられ、あなたを見捨てることはありません。このメッセージがあなたの心を励まし、神様の約束にしっかりと立つ助けとなれば幸いです。ぜひ今週のメッセージをチェックしてみてください。 </p><p>Can you have peace even when the storm around you hasn't stopped? In this week's message, we look at Mark 4 and the familiar story of Jesus calming the storm. While the disciples were overwhelmed with fear, Jesus remained in complete control. This passage reminds us that faith is trusting God even when our problems seem bigger than His promises. Together we explore how God's promises strengthen our faith, how He is still working when we cannot see it, and how true peace comes from trusting Him rather than our circumstances. Whatever storm you may be facing today, it may be one of the very ways God is growing your faith. He has not forgotten you, and He is still at work even when the outcome is unclear. Join us as we discover how God's promises can give us peace before the storm is over.
