Restored & Rescued

Nov 9, 2025    Tyler Sweatt

In Jonah 3, we witness the scandalous mercy of God on full display—toward a rebellious prophet and a wicked city.


Jonah, the runaway prophet, is recommissioned by God and sent again to Nineveh with a simple message: “Yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown.” What follows is one of the most remarkable turnarounds in all of Scripture—a city infamous for cruelty repents, and God relents.


Big Idea: God’s mercy restores the disobedient and rescues the undeserving through the power of His Word.
