In this powerful sermon, we unpack the story of Jonah from the Bible – not just the childhood Sunday school version with the big fish, but the raw, challenging reality. Discover how Jonah defies God’s call to preach to Nineveh, running in the opposite direction because he can’t stomach the idea of mercy for a pagan nation. Jonah’s grudge runs deep: he wants the Ninevites to face judgment, not repentance, while questioning why God isn’t showing the same grace to Israel. This message is a wake-up call to examine our hearts, release bitterness, and embrace forgiveness just as God does. Whether you’re exploring Bible stories for the first time or seeking fresh insights into faith, repentance, and divine mercy, this sermon will transform your perspective on Jonah and inspire real-life application.
