Instead of judging others, lean on the grace of God!...

Before, God hurled a storm and appointed a fish to get Jonah’s attention. Jonah eventually complied and walked the entire city preaching. After Jonah obeyed and then grew furious, the Almighty didn’t cast him aside. God cared about Jonah as much as He cared about the Ninevites, so He appointed a plant, a worm, and a wind to, once again, get the prophet’s attention. Sadly, Jonah simply didn’t get G...

Jonah obeyed when God came to him a second time. Jonah journeyed east to Nineveh and delivered what just might be the shortest sermon ever preached. As God’s message of truth spread through Nineveh, God ensured that a seed of just a few words sprouted a full harvest of spiritual fruit. Every Ninevite, perhaps as many as 600,000, turned away from their brutal and wicked ways toward the living God....
