Show Notes

In this last instalment on the book of Jonah, referrring specifically to Jonah 4:5-11, Rev Peter Phillips brings home the message of God’s love for people we wouldn’t expect that He would love – contrasted wth the ungrateful and unloving attitude of the prophet Jonah – who should have known and done better!

Message

Outline

• A blessing to preach this book, but deeply disturbing
• If Jonah could be so far out of step with the Lord…
• See in this text…

  1. Jonah – pity for a plant
  2. The Lord – pity for a people

Did Jonah go home happy…?
Why this book is relevant to us
God’s love and ours
