Should I Not Love that Great City?

Sinopse

Many recoil at the thought of being called to reside in a large city. Jonah felt the same way when God asked him to go to Nineveh, and he made every attempt and excuse to avoid the great city. Like Jonah, we may see crime, pollution, greed, and moral decay as deterrents to living in a city; but in God's eyes its peoples are precious, and his grace and mercy are available to all. Once we glimpse the heavenly eternal city, the city of God, we will share God’s view of the lost and will be able reach out in charity and love to a broken world. This sermon was preached by Rev. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on October 14, 2001. Series "The Church in the City". Scripture: Jonah 4:1-11
