I actually assumed that you had banished me from your sight. Yet, I know that I will one day gaze again upon your holy temple. The waters rose to choke me to death. The sea was closing in around me— seaweed tightened around my head. I sank down into the abyss, to the roots of the mountains, where the barred gates of that realm would lock me in forever. But you, YAHWEH, are my God; you raised my life from the pit.

3 Days
Every Spring, we celebrate Christ’s coming forth from the grave after three days in a tomb. Many of us, however, struggle with a loss of a sense of wonder at the resurrection. In our coolness, Scripture offers us other third-day stories that parallel Christ’s resurrection, casting light on the significance of Easter and warming our affections to its realities.
4 Days
In this 4-part devotional, Pastor Dylan Dodson teaches through the book of Jonah. This plan will help you see God’s faithfulness, and that no one is beyond His grace and mercy.
Jonah’s story reminds us that God’s compassion extends to both the prideful prophet and the wicked unbeliever. Despite all of Jonah’s resistance and hard-heartedness, God’s merciful message of repentance was still delivered to the Ninevites. The Ninevites' repentance shows us nothing can thwart God's plans of redemption.
