Can an man on a donkey really be the King of kings?

Jonah wants a world of karma rather than grace, it is more predictable. But it is the grace of God we need, not our just deserts.

Jonah, despite being a great recipient of grace, was unable to mirror to Nineveh that same love and grace of God. God however, comes alongside, as Nineveh repents so does God.

In part two of our Lenten series in the book of Jonah, Joseph looks at the difference between being saved from the storm and being saved in the storm.

Sean du Toit looks at the power of speech and the call to godly, reverent, kind speech in a divisive age.

We begin our Lenten journey through the book of Jonah. The prophet wanted to escape what God was doing in the darkness of Nineveh and head instead to a beach side resort. Ever felt like that?

Joseph encourages us in this season, to add to healthy habits and holy habits, a stance of faith. This pleases God.

Joseph encourages us in relation to a devotional reading of Scripture that is confident to embrace the text from an allegorical perspective that reads one story with an eye to our own story and that which the Spirit might be saying.

Joseph encourages us to re-engage, even in seasons of disruption when to push pause is tempting. In Jeremiah the word of the Lord was to engage!
