Jonah: Call & Response

This new sermon series is based on the book of Jonah. Unlike other prophetic books, this book focuses on the life of Jonah, the prophet. When God calls Jonah to warn the people of Ninevah, he chooses to disobey and runaway from God. We can relate to many of his actions and responses in that we tend to runway from callings that make us uncomfortable, even if we know it is God who called us. Yet, God is compassionate, and he causes circumstances to change so that Jonah responds. What calling from God might make us uncomfortable? What do we run away from?
