Jonah 2 Following Jesus When You’d Rather Run AwaySampl

The Power of Prayer

God can handle your realness.

What’s so powerful about Jonah’s prayer is that it’s not a sophisticated prayer but rather a simple, real, and honest one.

• What differences do you see between how Jonah prays and how you pray? What similarities do you see?
• Think about a time when you felt like you were in over your head, a time when you felt like you were drowning. In your own words write down what your prayer might look like if you were in Jonah’s shoes.
• What is the hardest part about prayer for you? How can you pray more like Jonah every day?
