The Book of Jonah | Jonah 4
Speaker: Vince Medrano
Why did Jonah run? The bewildering statement from Jonah to the Lord is that he fled from the Lord because he knew how God would respond to the repentance of Nineveh. Jonah is a prophet and is not ignorant to the ways of the Lord. We would think that this would cause him to run at the opportunity to be a part of the scene that takes place in Nineveh but it’s the opposite for Jonah. His knowledge of God causes him to run from God. The good news is that God doesn’t stop pursuing his wayward prophet.
Today’s Scriptures: Jonah 4
Psalm 139: Who Do We Get to Hate?
Throughout our stay in the book of Jonah we have also been reading Psalm 139 as a community. The end of Psalm 139 can feel problematic for us. Check out this article that offers observations that might help us navigate this tough portion of Scripture.
