Jonah, A Man On The Run: The Second Chance
Sunday Aug 14, 2016
Sunday Aug 14, 2016
Jonah has been through a lot in the past two chapters. Running away from God did not do what He hoped, but instead brought him to the inevitable, still having the same call that God began with. Many of us see or hear signs from God but we don't know what they are. Sometimes we even just completely deny those signs. We hope you listen in to the second chance that Jesus has to offer. No matter what you've done or how far you've run God wants you to know that He loves you and He wants to redeem you and give you unspeakable joy.
