We read in the news or see on TV, criminals who run or race from the police. Since they rarely escape, why do it? The offenders are moved by guilt. Today Dr. John speaks of Jonah who runs from an omnipresent God. Did he expect to hide? It seems that guilt can move God's prophet as well. We are no different.
The Boundless Compassion of God: Holding two polar positions as one may feel like a tug of war. We may get pulled to one extreme or the other. God is both just and loving, with infinite measure and glorious perfection. How can He be merciful and holy towards fallen humanity? The book of Jonah presents that question through the life, action and words of the prophet. In this 10-session series, Dr. John calls us to a holistic worship of God. He also points us to the example greater than Jonah. Jesus is the prefection of righteousness and compassion.
