Car won't start
 

Hey everyone, just some background. I have a 2011 Scion xD. It has just over 47,000 miles on it. I'm due for an oil change. It's been very cold the last few days, I haven't driven it since Saturday (2 days). I park my car outside and I've had no warning lights (other then oil change) prior to this morning. I also have not noticed any leaking fluids. I'm still getting at least some juice from my battery (dash lights and radio both working for now). When I went to start my car this morning, it wouldn't turn over. I also received the following warning indicators: Charging system, low engine oil pressure, and malfunction indicator lamp. I have next to no automotive knowledge and assume this is really bad (obviously). I'm of course assuming I'll need to have the car towed to the dealership but I'm not sure. Is it possible that all of this could just mean I need to give the car a jump? Any ideas what else it could be? I'm happy to answer any questions I can but I could really use any/everyone's help. Thanks

Update: Hey everyone, so I realize the description I gave wasn't exactly accurate. When I turn the key I get a rapid clicking sound. Based on some videos I've seen it sounds like I just need a new battery. Anyone able to confirm this?
