Powerful quotes from Rediscovering Jonah*This guide is for small group (or individual) study on the book of Jonah and specifically for Timothy Keller's book, Rediscovering Jonah: The Secret of God's Mercy. You will need a copy of the book and a Bible (or a Bible app).Rediscovering Jonah is one of the best books on the book of Jonah that helps readers discover the surprising treasures hidden in the text. The story of Jonah is thought to be well-known, but the actual message of the text is actually yet to be uncovered by most people! You'll be blessed by reading the book and embarking on a journey to God's mercy with others through this guide.Below is the description of Rediscovering Jonah from its Amazon page."Pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller reveals the hidden depths within the book of Jonah--the most misunderstood parable in the Bible.The story of Jonah is one of the most well-known parables in the Bible. It is also the most misunderstood. Many people, even those who are nonreligious, are familiar with Jonah: A rebellious prophet who defies God and is swallowed by a whale. But there's much more to Jonah's story than most of us realize.In Rediscovering Jonah, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller reveals the hidden depths within the book of Jonah. Keller makes the case that Jonah was one of the worst prophets in the entire Bible. And yet there are unmistakably clear connections between Jonah, the prodigal son, and Jesus. Jesus in fact saw himself in Jonah. How could one of the most defiant and disobedient prophets in the Bible be compared to Jesus?Jonah's journey also doesn't end when he is freed from the belly of the fish. There is an entire second half to his story--but it is left unresolved within the text of the Bible. Why does the book of Jonah end on what is essentially a cliffhanger? In these pages, Timothy Keller provides an answer to the extraordinary conclusion of this biblical parable--and shares the powerful Christian message at the heart of Jonah's story."*At the author's request, this book is being distributed without Digital Rights Management (DRM) copy protection enabled.
