Nineveh repents.

As we dive into Jonah chapter 3, we find a reluctant prophet carrying a very short message to his enemies in Nineveh.

In this talk, we explore a few questions together: What does it mean for us that the whole capital city of such a brutal empire responded so spectacularly to God’s invitation (even to include the animals!)? What’s with all the mourning clothes and ashes? And what does “repentance” even mean, for our context? What is the Spirit of God inviting us to, and how can we join him?
