    The world wanted to know – Who Jonah was? Who did he belong to? What was he doing? What was he doing to them? Why was he sleeping at the worst time? Like Jonah, the world watches the believer and wants to know the same thing.

What is your country? And of what people are you?” Jonah’s ministry took place in the 8th century B.C. – sometime ...read more

    What do you do when you don’t want to do what God wants you to do? What do you do when you know what’s right, but that’s just not the path you want to travel? What do you do when you and God just don’t want the same things for your life?
