Running To God | Fish Stories

from Mount Pleasant Christian Church · host Mount Pleasant Christian Church

We’ve all run from something, a hard conversation, a tough decision, a call from God we didn’t want to answer. Jonah did, too. Most people know him as “the guy who got swallowed by a fish,” but his story is really about what happens when we run… and what grace looks like when we stop.   In this series, we’re looking at Jonah’s journey, not just the part with the fish, but the real-life stuff: the choices that backfired, the storms that followed, and the unexpected shot at a second chance. This isn’t just an old Bible story, it’s a reflection of the world we live in. If you’ve ever felt lost, overwhelmed, or like you’ve been running from something for way too long… Jonah’s story might just be your story, too.
