God's Mercy and Kindness

God's Mercy and Kindness | Jonah 4We close out "Grace in the Deep End," our summer series through the book of Jonah, with the chapter most sermons skip: the one where the prophet gets angry that his enemies actually turned to God.Jonah 4 catches Jonah sitting outside Nineveh, furious that the revival worked. Clare unpacks why - the Hebrew wordplay hiding in the word "overthrown," what it means to want justice without mercy, and a true story from the front lines of anti-trafficking work about a survivor who chose to forgive the men who trafficked her. It's an honest look at what it costs to receive God's mercy for ourselves while learning to extend it to the people we've quietly decided don't deserve it.
