There is a story in the Old Testament about a man named Jonah. Have you heard of Jonah? And if you know anything about Jonah’s story – there is a very famous character – more famous than Jonah.
The Big Fish.

Now there are all kinds of things that can be said about the details of the big fish – where is there such a big fish? Could it be a whale shark? Did they live in that part of the world? How would one person even survive inside a fish?

So many questions that might be in your mind or resting in scepticism within you.
And yet – I want to say to you this morning – don’t let the big fish stump you. Don’t get stuck on it. Don’t let the big fish get in the way of what God might be saying and doing in and through this story.

Now the story of Jonah begins with God’s call on his life. Let’s take a look together.

I wonder whether you have ever done it. For some, the thought of doing it is disturbing or creepy; for others, doing it is clarifying.

Have you ever done it – taken a walk through a cemetery and looked at the headstones? Looked at the names, the dates and the epitaph, the short tribute to those who have died or perhaps a message to the living.

And then have you ever stopped to think what you would want to have written below your name and two dates?

Today, we discover that how we live often reflects what lives on in our legacy.

What does courage look like when doing the right thing comes at a cost? Drawing on the remarkable true story of Corrie ten Boom, who risked everything to protect Jewish families during World War II and Elisha in the Old Testament, this message explores fear, moral courage, non-violence, and the choice to stand with vulnerable people when it would be easier to stay silent. Whether you consider yourself religious or not, it’s an invitation to reflect on the kind of people we want to be—and the courage it takes to act with compassion when it matters most.
