It feels like we’re living in a time when everyone’s running, from each other, from responsibility, and maybe even from grace itself. We cancel, we divide, we draw lines in the sand. And sometimes we do it in the name of faith.

That’s why Jonah’s story hits home right now. It’s not just about a man swallowed by a fish, it’s about all of us who’ve ever tried to outrun God’s mercy. It’s about what happens when we’d rather see our enemies punished than forgiven, and how God keeps calling us back toward compassion instead of bitterness.

This week’s message, “Jonah: Running from Grace,” reminds us that you can’t outrun God’s mercy for you or for anyone else. And in a world that’s angry and divided, it's something we need to hear now more than ever.
