Many unbelievers today hear a lot from Christians about the decline of moral standards in our country, but are they getting the message that we are all sinners and that the blood of Jesus Christ, God’s Son, cleanses from every sin? Philip Yancey challenges us to be like perfume, and not like a destructive can of Raid™. We must go into our schools, our neighborhoods, and our workplaces with the commitment and hope that God can save the most destructive, wicked sinner imaginable. That's the message of the Book of Jonah—God’s heart passion is to save those we would never believe could be saved. God has "Ninevites" in our lives--the people we believe are our cultural enemies—the very people the Lord Jesus wants to reach.
