Summary

At The Trinity Church in Scottsdale, Pastor Mark Driscoll recently taught a four week series through the Book of Jonah entitled, A Fishy Tale about a Faithful God. Everyone struggles with idols – those objects of our attention that threaten to steal our hearts away from Christ. So in the midst of so much consumerism in our world today, how do you have the right perspective on the things you love? Pastor Mark takes you back to the book of Jonah in We Are Jonah – and shows you why idols will never make you happy, and how to keep Jesus in the right place in your life.
