The Book of Jonah Is More Than a Fish Tale…Jonah is one of the most famous stories in the Bible. Your classic "guy meets fish" story.Guy meets fish. Fish swallows guy. Fish spits guy out on God's command.It's easy to view Jonah as a nice little Bible story with a clear moral: Obey God or get eaten by a whale. (Or big fish.)But it's so much more than that!Jonah flips everything we'd expect from a Bible story upside down. It uses humor and irony to share a profound message of grace.In the book of Jonah…A man of God looks like a fool, and pagans come out smelling like roses. Ships have personalities, prophets throw tantrums, and worms teach lessons.God has compassion for our enemies and asks us to do the same.We discover how much God loves us in the middle of our mess. Nobody Left Out: Waves of Grace is a 40-day devotional through Jonah's story. In short, daily readings, we'll join Jonah on his adventure and see ourselves in each mess he creates.We'll follow Jonah as he runs from God and gets caught in a storm.We'll sink to the bottom of the ocean with him and wait for God's rescue.We'll walk with him begrudgingly into Nineveh—a city Jonah despises—and consider what (or who) it represents for us.And through it all, we'll get an up-close look at the waves of grace God has for us all.Whether you grew up with the story of Jonah or have never cracked open a Bible, Nobody Left Out: Waves of Grace will show you the depths of God's love for messy, broken people....He doesn't want anyone left out!About the Author:Michael Murray is just a messy, broken guy trying to follow Jesus one step at a time.
