ئەپەکە بەدەست بهێنەJonahنموونە
From what we know about Nineveh, it was a spiritually dark, morally reckless, and outright enemy of the people of Israel.
- In the beginning of the story, we think that Jonah is more than likely scared of what the Ninevites would do to him if he told them they were living against how God has called all of his people to live.
- However, in chapter 3 the most ruthless king of the most ruthless kingdom responds to Jonah’s 8 word sermon with not only repentance, but mourning for what was to come of their actions. The destruction of their kingdom.
- For a second, imagine what could have come of the Ninevites if Jonah had shared more time with them and shown them God’s ways.
- Imagine how much pain and suffering of future generations of Ninevites could have been stopped.

About this Plan
Jonah is a somewhat unique book because rather than focusing on Jonah's message, it focuses on his own story. In an age where many are deconstructing or questioning their faith because of perceiving God to be too strict, harsh, or un-loving (especially in the Old Testament), Jonah’s story stands as an example of God’s great love for humanity and redemptive purpose for the salvation of the whole world.
