    Jonah’s experience helps us understand God’s grace again. Hiding and running from God never pays, coming home to his will is the only way.

In the third chapter he ran with God, but in the fourth chapter he ran ahead of God. Jonah was a ...read more

It’s good to get the right perspective. • ...read more
