This one’s real. In today’s episode, I’m joined by my friend Sisi as we dive into the story of Jonah — and talk honestly about what it looks like to love people we don’t want to love.

Whether it's forgiving someone who hurt you, showing kindness when you'd rather not, or dealing with the “Ninevehs” in your own life, this story hits home more than we think. Jonah ran, resisted, and wrestled with God's mercy — and honestly, so do we sometimes.

We’re keeping it raw, unscripted, and full of grace. Let’s talk about it.

Then the L ord said, You had compassion on the plant for which you did not work and which you did not cause to grow, which came up overnight and perished overnight. Should I not have compassion on Nineveh, the great city in which there are more than 120,000 [innocent] persons, who do not know the difference between their right and left hand [and are not yet accountable for sin], as well as many [blameless] animals?
