    This sermon takes a little different look at the book of Jonah... as one traveling as a hitchhiker on the road of life.

    Jonah 1:3 and 4 present quite a contrast. In Verse three it is all "man" man flees from God, man sails the ship, man has no place for God. In verse four, the table is turned and it is all God. God seeks man; He sends the storm; and, in the end-God wins.
