“What if the salvation you thought you were receiving doesn’t look like what you expected?”

In this episode of the Rooted Podcast, Kevin dives into Jonah 2 — one of the most misunderstood parts of the Bible. After being thrown overboard and swallowed by a great fish, Jonah finds himself at rock bottom. But it’s in that lowest moment that he finally prays.

Sometimes, God’s love doesn’t look like a rescue… it looks like a pit.
But that pit may be the place where everything changes.

🎙️ In this episode:

  • Why God's love can feel like rejection

  • What to do when life gets worse after prayer

  • How shame and suffering played a role in Jonah’s restoration

  • Why the pit might be your path to purpose

📖 Key Text: Jonah 1:17–2:10
🌊 Theme: God’s Crazy Love leads us to restoration, even if it first takes us through the deep.
