Running From God's Word | Jonah 1:1-17

We start a new series on the Book of Jonah. Jonah is mentioned in 2 Kings 14:25. Jonah prophesied during the reign of Jeroboam Il the northern king of Israel. The events here are believed to have happened in 786-746 BC. Here in v. 1, the word of God came to Jonah to go to the great city of Nineveh! But how does Jonah respond? How will we respond to God's call in this city? We see in our passage:- a) God's call to go into the city. b) God's holy disruption of our plans. c) God's grace that comes to our rescue.
