Sovereign Grace: The Unanswered Question
Thank you for joining us for our time of corporate worship here at Chapel City Church! As we come to the end of the Book of Jonah, we are confronted once again with Jonah’s rebellion against God. When he was in the belly of the great fish, he called out to God for deliverance and salvation. He trusted that God was both willing and able to save him from his dire…
Sovereign Grace: When Rebels Repent
Welcome to Chapel City Church! We are so glad that you are joining us for our time of worship today. As we work our way through the Book of Jonah, God’s sovereign grace has been on display. We see his power and his grace as he calls his prophet, as he sends a storm, as he demonstrates his power to pagan sailors, and as he rescues his wayward messenger from the…
Sovereign Grace: A Song of Salvation
Welcome to Chapel City Church! The book of Jonah highlights the sovereign grace of God. Last week we found the prophet Jonah disobediently running away from God and stubbornly refusing to yield—even in the face of a supernatural storm. Justice says that Jonah being cast into the sea should have been the end of him. But the LORD had other…
Sovereign Grace: Running from God
Good morning, and welcome to Chapel City Church! This morning we will open the book of Jonah together as we continue on our journey through the minor prophets. Many of us are at least somewhat familiar with the story of Jonah. It’s one of those biblical narratives that makes its way into every Sunday School curriculum, and even into popular culture. But what is the…
God of the Nations
Welcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church. We are so glad that you are here, and we would love the opportunity to answer any questions that you might have, and to know how we can be praying for you! This morning we will open the book of Obadiah together. Although it’s the shortest book in the minor prophets (and the whole Old Testament), it…
Correction & Kindness
Thank you for joining us for our time of worship here at Chapel City Church. As we close the book of Amos, we are going to see the fullness of God’s justice and mercy. Because he is holy, sin must be dealt with. Amos takes us through the failures of Israel as they refuse to submit to what God has called them to be and to do. They do religious things, but their god…
Prophetic Pictures
This week we will continue our journey through the book of Amos as we study chapters 7 and 8. By this point, we know that the minor prophets in general have a lot to say about judgment. But it can be easy to focus on the judgment and forget the tremendous mercy of God. As the Lord gives Amos a series of visions, he demonstrates both his patience and his justice. Israel…
How Thankful Are You?

Today we will…
Spurning Salvation
Thank you for joining us here at Chapel City church for our time of corporate worship. God is holy, and he deserves and demands the worship of the nations. He has shown that he will deal with sin, whether that sin comes from the gentiles or from his people Israel. However, even in the midst of his righteous judgement, God promises and provides the means of…
Covenant Justice
Welcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church. We are thankful that you are here and would love the opportunity to answer your questions or to know how we can be praying for you. YHWH relates to his people through a special relationship called a covenant. Much more than a contract or a legal obligation, a covenant is an intimate relationship in…
YHWH Roars
Welcome to our time of worship together here at Chapel City Church. We are thankful that you are here and would love the opportunity to answer your questions or to know how we can be praying for you. This morning, we will open up the next book in our study of the minor prophets. Like the other prophets that we have worked through, Amos has much to say about the holiness,…
