Jonah: More Than a Fish Tale
|
Sundays in June 9:00 - 9:50 am Room 218
 You may have heard about Jonah being swallowed by a whale, but what about the rest of the story? The story of Jonah is a long tale that deals with surprisingly contemporary issues: resentments against national enemies, running away from God, revenge and forgiveness, anger at God and God's relentless grace.
