20260628 Saving Jonah - The Call

There is a story in the Old Testament about a man named Jonah. Have you heard of Jonah? And if you know anything about Jonah’s story – there is a very famous character – more famous than Jonah. 
The Big Fish.

Now there are all kinds of things that can be said about the details of the big fish – where is there such a big fish? Could it be a whale shark? Did they live in that part of the world? How would one person even survive inside a fish? 

So many questions that might be in your mind or resting in scepticism within you.
And yet – I want to say to you this morning – don’t let the big fish stump you. Don’t get stuck on it. Don’t let the big fish get in the way of what God might be saying and doing in and through this story.

Now the story of Jonah begins with God’s call on his life. Let’s take a look together.
