Jonah: Week Four - What’s Your Response?

Chris Hunt

Have you ever wanted a “do-over?” Have you ever messed up and wished you
could have a soft reset on the situation? We all want second chances but sometimes struggle to offer them to others. What if that reluctance on our part is hindering our own fresh start? In this series, we look at the Biblical prophet Jonah - a man who needed a second chance himself and found it in the most unexpected way. The good news is, God loves giving second, third, and fiftieth chances; and showing us time and again that He never gives up on us.
Notes:

Our good God is gracious, full of compassion, slow to anger, and abounding in love!
Every chance from God requires a choice from us.
