The Secret Siege of Nineveh
Nineveh was the greatest city the world had seen at its time. And yet, God decides to besiege it and sack it with an army of one. How did he do it? He did it by turning one person, Jonah, into a world-changer.
Are you an army of one? You have people all around you who need you, people all around you who are dying, and you see it. How could you become a world-changer like Jonah?
There are four things God brought to bear on Jonah that made him into a world-changer: 1) God’s persistent grace, 2) God’s calling, 3) God’s strategy, and 4) God’s power.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on August 26, 1990. Series: Jonah. Scripture: Jonah 3.

Thank you so much for this beautiful message. You sure do miss Dr Keller. I’m a missionary in Japan and this message really rings so true in my heart. Helping and loving others has always been my joy and it’s easy to implode and let my troubles and situation hinder me, so this was a great reminder of the importance. Thank you
