Jonah

Jul 14, 2021

There's definitely insiders and outsiders in the book of Jonah. Jonah, an Israelite prophet, is a clear insider. He encounters from questionable characters like the sailors and the people of Nineveh, who are definitely outsiders. But like so many other stories from our series, it's the outsiders who seem to respond to God in a positive way while Jonah literally runs from God. This is yet another example of the way we have a lot to learn from the people we least expect to be right with God.
