Jonah | Chapter 2

Join us as we dive into Jonah's poetic prayer for deliverance in chapter 2! Even though Jonah continually adopts attitudes and mindsets that are unaligned with God's mission for him; still God refuses to abandon stubborn Jonah, lavishing relentless grace on their rebellious prophet.

In this message, we see how Jonah encapsulates Israel's story of exile due to betrayal and waywardness. Yet for all his eloquence, applying truth to prejudice remains Jonah's challenge - as it remains the Church's.

Still, despite exposing gaps between our words and ways, the Lord patiently draws us into reasoning together. What if authentic repentance is not an event, but a perpetual lifestyle beckoning us to greater surrender through an encounter with radical love?
