Guided by Rev. Dr. Vanessa Lovelace, the podcast explores Jonah's historical context, major themes of repentance and forgiveness, and the fish/whale that swallows Jonah. They discuss different ways to understand Jonah disobeying God's call, his insincere prayer, and the repentance in Nineveh that includes the animals. Rev. Dr. Lovelace recommends 'Womanist Interpretations of the Bible' and other texts for further reading.
