In this conversation Gavin, Erik, and Cody discuss the book of Jonah. Read those four chapters, listen to the audio of the conversation, and then chip in on the comments section below with your own thoughts on the Scripture and responses to these three questions:
- What word, phrase, or theme most resonated with you personally as you read this section of Scripture?
- What does this portion of Scripture invite us to as a community of disciples?
- If you’re sitting down with these chapters, what drink or snack would pair best with the reading?
Next week we chat about Amos, chapters 1-6.

Hopefully you had time to Google the interesting larvae in the mezcal topic.
Anyway, it was incredibly interesting to hear about all of the deeper aspects of the story of Jonah, the details that I had not previously considered.
There is SO much to learn from these old “Sunday School” stories that I have just continued to accept, without much further thought or meditation.
God pours out mercy on everyone, and everything (the cattle were also spared from destruction), yet we need to accept that blessing for all things (even blessings and mercy poured out upon our despicable enemies). Plus we also need to accept the judgement(s), especially when those judgements/convictions redirect our hearts and minds to follow the will of GOD…and when it causes our enemies to repent, redirect and follow GOD.
I need to consider if I am willing to accept the repentance of a despicable enemy…..I hope I would be willing and welcoming, BUT……GOD, please help me to see and accept your mercy poured out on everyone, because that is who YOU are!
