Jonah: God’s mercy is wider than we think
What if the hardest part of following God isn’t obedience—but mercy?
In this episode of the Doorways Ministry Podcast, Ric Shields sits down with Pastor Joe Cook to unpack the deeper message of the book of Jonah. Far beyond a story about a fish, Jonah reveals the tension between God’s boundless compassion and our limited love.
Why did Jonah run? Not because he feared judgment—but because he knew God would show mercy.
Together, they explore what happens when we struggle to love our enemies, prioritize comfort over calling, and quietly resist God’s heart for others. This conversation will challenge you to examine who your “Nineveh” is—and whether you’re willing to extend the same grace you’ve received.
