In Jonah 2, we take a break from the narrative to read a poem of thanksgiving that Jonah prayed when he was detained for three days and three nights. It turns out that the fish that swallowed Jonah was God’s appointed means not for Jonah’s destruction but for his rescue. By surviving his brush with death, Jonah learned an important lesson that we all must learn.
Christians need to walk wisely by being filled in the Holy Spirit.
Jesus combined a warning of judgment with a demonstration of the liberating power of the kingdom of God.
Paul addressed a serious conflict in the church and how to live differently: in unity, joy, gentleness, peace, and goodness.
