Jonah was a rebel prophet. When God wanted him to preach a message of hope to Ninevah, a city in Assyria, Jonah traveled in the opposite direction. His story of failure shows us God's mercy-both to the prophet and to a people who didn't deserve it. It reminds us of God's mercy to us and challenges us to be ambassadors of that mercy.
