This Sunday we are starting a new series looking at the book of Jonah in the Old Testament.
Most of us are familiar with this story. Kids love it, but as we get older it sometimes loses its awe factor. I don’t know why, but often we can read it and go, “Ok, guy runs from God, gets swallowed by a big fish, gets thrown up and then goes and preaches in Nineveh, the people repent.” Well I want to tell you there’s a lot more to it than that.
This story is one that proclaims God’s love and power in an amazing way. Although it can still feel like a tale to entertain there is a much deeper understanding. This week we are going to take a focused look on the life of Jonah and see that perhaps there is a Jonah is all of us. May we all be open to all that the Holy Spirit will say to us.
Looking forward to seeing you there. – Andrew
