The story of Jonah is a story that shows us the radical mercy of God, the striking disobedience of Jonah and his resentment for God’s compassion for sinner. In this sermon, pastor Joel introduces us to the main characters in the story of Jonah and the historical setting of the book. As we consider Jonah’s commission and his resistance to God’s word, we are reminded of the futility of running from the Lord and encouraged to consider what our own response is to his word.
