Jonah’s story has much to say about the heart of God and the mission of God’s people. God desires to show His mercy and offer forgiveness to all peoples of the Earth. When the church takes seriously the command of God to arise and go to the nations of the world, those people who hear the Word and respond in faith experience the mercy and forgiveness of God in life-changing, culture-impacting ways. How Great Thou Art!
