Week of November 3 through 9

Jonah 1:1-17; 3:1-10

SUMMARY:

God told Jonah to go to Nineveh with a message for the people to turn to God. Jonah disobeyed and traveled by boat in the opposite direction. A storm came, and Jonah realized it was because of his disobedience. He was thrown overboard and was swallowed by a big fish. God spoke to him again, telling him to return to Nineveh. This time Jonah obeyed. The people of Nineveh turned from their evil ways.

THE POINT:

No matter what we do, God’s love for us never changes.

QUESTIONS ASKED:

What do you think is inside the belly of a fish?

Isn’t God being gracious, merciful, slow to anger, and full of steadfast love a good thing? Why do you think Jonah is upset about this?
