Until you admit that you run from God, you can’t know him or find him. You’re not just a troubled person. You’re not just a hurting person. You’re not a self-sufficient person. Primarily, you’re running.
Every one of us has unique, habitual ways of hiding and running away from God. Until you know what yours are, until you see them, you can’t really grow as a Christian. And that’s what the book of Jonah is about: it’s about Jonah running and God chasing.
Let’s look at 1) the storm God sent and 2) Jonah’s response to the storm.
This Month's Featured Book
We are called to forgive others the same way Christ forgave us. But forgiving others — especially when you’ve truly been wronged — can be one of the hardest things we do in life. This book will show you how forgiving others doesn’t mean sacrificing your need for justice; but rather, forgiveness is a precondition for seeking true justice.
