Why Does God Do Nothing?
By Tim Keller
Sermon
Those Who Cling…Forfeit the Grace
Tim Keller | September 30, 2001
Overview
Jonah’s spirituality was fine for his old world and his old situations. But when he’s faced with a new situation, it just collapses.
Then, when he’s in the belly of the fish, Jonah begins to reflect and pray, and as the prayer moves along, we see he has a spiritual breakthrough. Now the new situation is something he can handle. How do we, too, move to the next level?
By looking at Jonah’s prayer we learn about 1) the key to spiritual transformation, 2) the method of spiritual transformation, 3) the marks of spiritual transformation, and 4) the continual need for it.
