If We Can See Ourselves in Jonah, We Can Experience God in a Powerful New Way

Xulon Press presents a discussion of stale Christians and a merciful God.

2019-10-28

Author and pastor Richard W. Cowley brings the book of Jonah to life in When Your First Choice is Not God’s: What Happens When the Jonah in Us Meets the God in Jonah ($16.49, paperback, 9781498499521; $26.49, hardback, 9781498499538; $8.99, e-book, 9781498499545).  He believes that all Christians share some qualities with this fishy prophet, and that the God he served is still the same today.

 

“This fresh look at the Book of Jonah [is] an example of how familiar Scripture can be made alive, fresh and new not in spite of, but because of incredibly difficult experiences,” said Cowley.

 

Richard W. Cowley has been a pastor for over forty years. He has experienced and survived a wilderness journey ("fish time" in Jonah terminology) and found the God of Jonah in new, unexpected, and transforming ways.
