President Barnes preaches on Jonah 1:1-3

What this episode covers

February 6, 2017 | Miller Chapel "Jonah set out to flee to Tarshish from the presence of God." Jonah received a clear mission from God he did not want. So he tried to run not just from this calling, but also from God. But mission is not just an option on career day. We don’t look for it; it looks for us. And to reject it is to flee from being in the presence of God. But God will relentlessly look for us. It is impossible to hide from God.
