Key scripture: Jonah 1:1–17

The book of Jonah has captivated and perplexed audiences for generations. It’s often understood as “that story about a guy who got swallowed by a whale.” But truth be told, there’s so much more going on than that. At its core, Jonah is a story about a prophet who calls others to repent but refuses to repent himself. And ultimately, about a God who will go to extreme measures to try and change that about him.
