5.2 Jonah, the Passive Aggressive Prophet

I created this podcast – to attempt to retell some of my favourite Bible stories in a way that might help us to hear them as their first listeners would have done so. Such a retelling may not help us to know exactly what happened, but I hope it might help us to delve into those truths that they were trying to communicate.
