Pastor LeeWood closed out our inspection of Jonah by looking at Jonah 4. The main idea from this session was that Jonah’s anger is overshadowed by God’s gracious character being shown to the Ninevites and Jonah himself. At the conclusion of our time in Jonah LeeWood says that we are forced to answer two questions: 1) how should I respond when God's grace is shown to His enemies, and 2) can you see your own sin and need for forgiveness?
