About this book

The story of Jonah and the whale is one of the most famous in the Bible: but its message is perhaps one of the most ignored.

It’s a story about storms and sailors, rebellion, and rescue, preaching and protest. And it’s a story about one reluctant evangelist’s experience of speaking to people who knew nothing about God. So its message has great relevance today for God’s people, living in an increasingly non-Christian culture.

Jonah’s story will encourage believers who find themselves ill-equipped to share God’s message with colleagues, friends and family: and it deeply challenges our priorities in life.

Endorsements

Stephen Witmer opens up to our minds and hearts the amazing grace of God, and shows us how ultimately it's Jesus who makes that grace possible for us.  Biblically rich and personally accessible, the last study brings it all together and shows us how the story of Jonah is also the big picture of the Bible—the depths of God's grace.

Thanks, Stephen, for bringing Jonah to life. And glad to see there’s now a Good Book Guide focussing on it. We’ve used GBGs from The Good Book Company before with our small groups, and have been blessed by their faithfulness to Scripture, Christ-centeredness, and helpful application. Is this the first one you’ve written?

I love this small group study guide series from The Good Book Company. Christians are regularly told they should spend more time studying God’s Word, but sometimes there’s not a clear plan for how to do this. These study guides provide practical, step-by-step guidance on working through books of the Bible, along with wonderful questions that encourage reflection and application. I hope churches and Christian ministries will take advantage of this wonderful resource.

Customer Reviews

4.00 stars Very useful group study book

 

Thought provoking and easy to use study book.
My one criticism would be that the print in some areas is too faint. I found this with a previous study book too.

5.00 stars Repentance and the Sovereignty of God

 

We are nearly finished this study, and have found it to be really helpful. Would highly recommend.

5.00 stars Highly recommended

 

Our group of ladies, mature in age and faith, has thoroughly enjoyed this study. It has revealed so much more (hidden depths!) in what we thought was a familiar story. It has encouraged, challenged and inspired us. Praise the Lord and thank you & Stephen Witmer.
