For those who run away from the Lord, like Jonah, it’s easy to get off the right path, and the road back can be difficult and painful. In this message, Jonah’s downward spiral continues, as he sinks from ship to sea to the belly of a great fish, where he finally turns back to God in prayer. God delivers and recommissions him, and Jonah reluctantly preaches in Nineveh, where an astonishing city wide repentance leads God to spare more than 600,000 people. Instead of rejoicing, Jonah becomes angry that God showed compassion, but by the end, he has learned that God’s mercy reaches even those we least expect.
