In this sermon Mr. Smith continues looking at Bible stories by looking in detail at one of the most well known stories, the book of Jonah. The story books on Jonah only cover Jonah in the great fish which is only a small part of what this book covers. The major theme of the book deals with God trying to correct Jonah's attitude relating to God's willingness to show mercy to the people of Nineveh.
