Hearing God’s invitation to act is one thing. Receiving it and obeying is a whole 'nother kettle of fish. Jonah heard the voice of God, but it wasn’t something he wanted to hear, so he tried to run away from it. Have you ever done that? Some stories in the Bible have more to teach us about what not to do than what to do. The book of Jonah is one such story.

This message sets the groundwork for next three weeks diving into the book of Jonah. But it's more than just the historical context or literary framing -- Pastor Mark leads us into the opportunity to take a look in the mirror. Join us as we start the journey with Jonah.
