This four-week series goes verse by verse through the book of Jonah. In the book of Jonah, we discover a God who relentlessly pursues rebels – idolatrous sailors, evil Ninevites, and especially His rebel prophet Jonah. Join us to discover a holy God of justice Who delights to pursue and save rebels like you and me.
Jonah’s unrepentant rebellion regarding God’s mercy towards the Ninevites (‘sinners’ whom Jonah does not think deserve mercy) comes to the surface in this final chapter, but God in His grace continues to pursue the rebellious prophet to the end.
Jonah 4
God sends flawed rebel servants like Jonah and us to proclaim His Word to rebels who do not know Him so that they might turn to Him and be saved.
Jonah 3
Jonah’s prayer of thanksgiving from inside the fish is a model of crying out to God with His Word, but it also reveals Jonah’s lack of personal repentance and his lack of compassion for the lost.
Jonah 2
Jonah was called to proclaim God’s word to the city of Nineveh, but he rebelled and tried to flee from God and His call, but God relentlessly pursued him and even the sailors whose lives Jonah endangered by his rebellion.
