Sunday Worship
Sunday, June 24
It's highly unlikely that you've confessed your sin to the Lord while trapped inside a large fish. . . but that's what the prophet Jonah had to do. This Sunday we will see confession as the way to freedom, regardless of how trapped we are by our sin.

| God's Word
From inside the fish Jonah prayed to the Lord his God. He said: "In my distress I called to the Lord, and he answered me. From the depths of the grave I called for help, and you listened to my cry.
Jonah 2:1-2
