The Futile Attempt to Outrun the Presence of God

May 08, 2026

Summary

We all try to find a place of hiding from God. Jonah 1 reveals the danger of selective obedience—when heeding God’s voice feels too risky. In this message, Pastor Philip Miller begins a study in Jonah, exploring how God’s relentless grace pursues us anyway. Jonah’s 2,500-mile detour would take him face-to-face with God Himself.

This is part one of the sermon, “Running from God.”
