Did you ever wonder what the inside of a whale looks like? On this episode we focus on a person who knew the answer to that question. We focus in however on Jonah's temper and his selfish will and we relate that to today's world. Are you and I living in God's will or in our own? It's a question worth knowing an answer to and the answer may bring you closer to God than you are now.

 10 But the Lord said, “You have been concerned about this plant, though you did not tend it or make it grow. It sprang up overnight and died overnight. 11 And should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left—and also many animals?”

Psalm 34:17-19

    he delivers them from all their troubles.

18 The Lord is close to the brokenhearted
    and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

19 The righteous person may have many troubles,

Jason shares some wise words about Paul's message to Corinth. We see how Paul compares and contrasts a life outside of Christ to a life committed to Jesus. Then the Holy Spirit makes an abrupt turn in today's lesson. When the Holy Spirit speaks you must be quick to obey. This is an example of that as Jason moves into an unexpected direction mid message. It's definitely worth the listen.

8 We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; 9 persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 10 We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. 11 For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be e revealed in our mortal body.

Of David. A maskil.

1 Blessed is the one
    whose transgressions are forgiven,
    whose sins are covered.

2 Blessed is the one
    whose sin the Lord does not count against them
    and in whose spirit is no deceit.

3 When I kept silent,
    my bones wasted away
    through my groaning all day long.

4 For day and night
    your hand was heavy on me;
my strength was sapped
    as in the heat of summer.

5 Then I acknowledged my sin to you
    and did not cover up my iniquity.
I said, “I will confess
    my transgressions to the Lord.”
And you forgave
    the guilt of my sin.

6 Therefore let all the faithful pray to you
    while you may be found;
surely the rising of the mighty waters
    will not reach them.

7 You are my hiding place;
    you will protect me from trouble
    and surround me with songs of deliverance.

8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
    I will counsel you with my loving eye on you.

9 Do not be like the horse or the mule,
    which have no understanding
but must be controlled by bit and bridle
    or they will not come to you.

10 Many are the woes of the wicked,
    but the Lord’s unfailing love
    surrounds the one who trusts in him.

11 Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous;
    sing, all you who are upright in heart!

In this Episode we learn about our worth in the Kingdom of God. Did you know that you have a mission to share the gospel so that others can reap the glory that you already know? People are eagerly awaiting anyone who will tell them that everything will be okay. Your life has importance and Jason will share with you why that is. **Note** Sorry for the poor sound quality at the start. It is fixed by 06:19.

18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that[a] the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God.

In this episode we once again learn about the prophet Jeremiah. In the verses Jeremiah describes how Bethlehem has just fallen. These scriptures describe not just the grief of Jeremiah and his people but also the understanding that God has not left the Judeans. Jeremiah uses poise to emphasize that if God has not left there is always hope of a bright future.

Lamentations 3:20-25

New International Version

20 I well remember them,
    and my soul is downcast within me.
 21 Yet this I call to mind
    and therefore I have hope:

22 Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,
    for his compassions never fail.
 23 They are new every morning;
    great is your faithfulness.
24 I say to myself, “The Lord is my portion;
    therefore I will wait for him.”

25 The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him,
    to the one who seeks him;

14 Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven,[a] Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. 16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.
