Jonah
The book of Jonah challenges us to consider how we will respond to God’s voice, His wisdom, and His work in the world. Through storms, resistance, reluctant obedience, repentance, hard questions, and renewal, we are invited to examine our willingness to listen, obey, and embrace the abundant depth of God’s compassion.
"He prayed to the LORD, “Isn’t this what I said, LORD, when I was still at home? That is what I tried to forestall by fleeing to Tarshish. I knew that you are a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abounding in love, a God who relents from sending calamity." Jonah 4:2
