1308: Something's Fishy (Jonah 1:1) // Swallowed by Mercy 01 (Nathan Johnson)


Listen Later

Something's fishy … and it's not the book of Jonah.

When most people think of Jonah, they picture a fish. Yet the fish appears in only three verses of this profound prophetic book. So if Jonah isn't really about a fish, what's it about? What many dismiss as a children's story is actually a masterfully crafted account meant to pierce our hearts, expose our prejudices, and radically transform our lives.

In this verse-by-verse study, we'll discover that Jonah is a book about the Living God who relentlessly pursues the lost, even when His own people would prefer He didn't. And woven throughout this humorous yet convicting narrative, we'll see stunning shadows of Jesus Christ and His Gospel.

Whether you've read Jonah a hundred times or are encountering it for the first time, prepare to see this ancient book in a completely new light. It's time to move beyond the Sunday school version and discover the beauty, humor, and life-changing truth within this often misunderstood little Old Testament book.
