## Resource

In this episode, we dive deep—literally and spiritually—into one of the most misunderstood books of the Bible: Jonah. You might think it’s a children’s story about a big fish, but it’s really a prophetic satire that challenges everything we think we know about God’s mercy, human prejudice, and what obedience truly looks like. We’ll explore why Jonah, a prophet of God, ran in the opposite direction when called—and what that says about our own struggles to love people we don’t think deserve it. You’ll hear about reluctant prophets, pagan sailors with more faith than the man of God, and a God who appoints storms, fish, and even plants to teach us hard truths about compassion. Jonah’s story is rich with irony, theology, and unexpected reversals. And as Jesus Himself referenced Jonah as a sign pointing to his own resurrection, this episode also offers a compelling connection between the depths Jonah faced and the hope found in Christ. 🎧 Whether you’re new to the Bible or a long-time reader, this episode will push you to ask: Who is your Ninevite? And are you ready for a God whose mercy reaches further than you might be comfortable with?
