"In this outstanding book Tullian Tchividjian helps us see that there is something of Jonah in all of us, and that we stand in need of the same grace of God every day. I was both convicted and encouraged by this book, and highly recommend it to every Christian." Jerry Bridges, author, The Pursuit of Holiness

"Tullian's masterful retelling of this familiar story will fill you with awe and wonder at God's startling grace and his tender heart toward us, his lost and rebellious children." Sally Lloyd-Jones, author, The Jesus Story-Book Bible

"A much-needed reminder that we should never get over the gospel, or try to move beyond it." Randy Alcorn, author, Heaven and If God Is Good

"Tullian's heart to see rebels-as well as cold-hearted Pharisees-transformed by the gospel of grace shines through on every page." Joshua Harris, Pastor, Covenant Life Church, Gaitherburg, Mary-land; author, Dug Down Deep

"A crash course on the outrageous mathematics of God's mercy and grace. The same God who pursues violent pagan kings also pursues his smug, self-righteous sons and daughters." Scotty Smith, Pastor for Preaching, Teaching, and Worship, Christ Community Church, Franklin, Tennessee

"If you need to remember that God is greater than your sin, that his purpose to bless isn't really dependent upon your goodness, and that he will accomplish all his purposes no matter what, this Christ-exalting book will serve you well." Elyse Fitzpatrick, author, Because He Loves Me: How Christ Transforms Our Daily Life

Many of us think we know God's heart better than we do. We think we have a good handle on what should and should not be acceptable to God. But God has never conformed to our faulty assumptions about his character. Indeed, his compassion and pardon are utterly shocking in their lavish abundance---a lesson learned the hard way by one man who kept resisting God's grace in whatever way he could.

The man's name isn't new. It's Jonah, the famous Old Testament prophet. We find his story compelling because all of us hesitate to follow God from time to time. Jonah's story has been our own. However, Tullian Tehividjian shows that the emphasis of our story is not on our disobedience, but on God's persistent grace.

This powerful journey through unforgetable events and imagery reveals how God relentlessly pursues rebels, a category that ultimately includes everyone. though he has every right and plenty of reasons to give up on us all.

Encounter the story of Jonah in a gripping presentation that will open your eyes wider than ever to God's relentless, purposeful, and inexhaustible grace.
