Jonah is someone that we grow up learning about, how he disobeyed God and was swallowed by a fish. However, there is so much more to that story and during college and even in more recent years I have heard sermons focusing on Jonah and have heard things that I had never thought about or realized. Working through study book had me saying that over and over again. There are aspects of Jonah's life and story that I have not really though about much. Also, the application of his story is eye-opening and it is a good reminder of God being in charge and the importance of us repenting when we have sinned and done wrong. I love how this study is set up as the chapters/lessons are relatively short and very specific so that it is really delved into and addressed thoroughly. Each lesson consists of a reading, reflection section, a discussion section and so much to think about and apply personally. This study can be used individually or in a group setting. Upon completing this study I felt like I learned so much thought about what other books of the Bible I may want to work through next to see what I can learn that may have not stood out to me earlier.
