Jonah 1:5-6 ~ Who is My Neighbor?

Text: Jonah 1:5-6
Title: Who is My Neighbor?
Preacher: Rev. Greg Brower

An angry prophet. A fearsome and hated enemy. An overwhelming storm. And a surprising message of a merciful God to his people. The story of Jonah is one of the most well-known stories in the Bible. It is also one of the most misunderstood. Many people, even those who are not religious, are familiar with Jonah: a rebellious prophet who defies God and is swallowed by a whale. But there’s much more to Jonah’s story than most of us realize. As we continue our study of Jonah, we find our prophet confronted by both his own self-centeredness and the surprising righteousness of the pagans around him.
