Jonah
Sushi Covered Prayers | Torrey Herrin
Torrey Herrin preaches from Jonah chapter 2 about prayer, calling his theme "sushi covered prayers" to describe Jonah praying from inside the belly of the fish. He argues prayer is central to the Christian life - it starts and sustains everything - and shows how Jonah prayed Scripture (quoting the Psalms) when he didn’t know what else to say.
When God Gives You More Than You Can Handle - Grant Skeldon
Grant Skeldon challenges the common saying "God won't give you more than you can handle," calling it "almost true." He argues that the Bible depicts people repeatedly put into situations bigger than they could manage so God can build faith, character, and dependence on him - not to abandon them. Skeldon outlines six spiritual seasons (dry, waiting, grinding, testing, warring, rejoicing), describes signs and temptations for each, and explains the work God intends in them.
