Jonah 1

 

In a culture marked by spiritual apathy, social injustice, political polarization, and self-absorbed living, Jonah and Amos speak with timely relevance for our lives in Denver today.

Jonah is a story-driven prophetic book centered around a reluctant prophet who is called to preach repentance to Israel’s enemies in Nineveh. Jonah refuses, not out of fear, but because he knows God is merciful—and he doesn’t want Nineveh to receive that mercy. God relentlessly pursues both Jonah and the Ninevites, extending His compassion to rebels—insiders and outsiders alike.
