God’s Mercy Extended
God is very willing to grant MERCY at the first sign of true repentance to ANY NATION (even cruel & merciless ones) or person (sinners). We like Jonah must learn to practice and value godly MERCY no matter the circumstances

The Heart Of The Matter
This story is about the prophet Jonah. He was sent by God to a city named Nineveh, but he didn't want to go. We'll examine what was going on in the heart of this man, Jonah, when he was sent by God in light of the fact that we are all sent in some way to restore others to a relationship with God.

The Mission and Call of God For His People: Jonah 2
Last week we looked at the paradox of Jonah in his disobedience and deserving of judgment being a sign of Christ’s judgment on the cross on our behalf. In our passage today, we see a similar admittance of guilt, and a repentant return to the Lord. What’s interesting is that in spite of Jonah’s disobedience in Chapter one, the pagan sailors seem to have recognized this reality too. Another perspective is the acknowledgment of God’s sovereignty in our adverse circumstances even when we are running away God appears absent but even in Jonah’s predicament He is not only present, but actively present.

The Mission and Call of God For His People: Jonah 1
This book is a story of God’s grace, and His call of His people to carry out His mission to the “Nations”. The church (Ecclesia) is a gathered group of people to help carry out God’s mission in the world This book is a narrative unpacking God’s intention for Israel in spite of the fact that they had not been the witness to the nations as God had intended. Ouch, sounds all too familiar! In our passage today (Chapter One), we see God’s call and Jonah’s disobedience based on nationalistic pride and bitter hatred for the people whom God loves and calls.
