A rebellious prophet and a really big fish.
A sinful city and a shocking pardon.
Repentance and mercy – a whole lotta mercy.
Join us here tomorrow — Tuesday, March 18 — as we begin 2 weeks in the book of Jonah.
We have fallen in love with this little Old Testament book, and we can’t wait to read through it with you.
So today, REST. Breathe. Pray. We’ll see you tomorrow.

Hi ladies,
Is this Jonah study still part of the Lent study? Just double checking! :)
<3 & prayers to all.
I am sooooo excited about learning more about Jonah!!!! I teach chapel every Friday to toddlers and once in awhile I will do a chapel lesson on Jonah…… Can't wait to see what we will learn about Jonah and Lent……..
I'm new here so have the same question as Traci, also how do you get notifications through email seen you can set that up from the FB page to get Daily readings? Thank you ladies
I’m new to she reads truth and I’m looking forward to beginning in the study through Jonah! Is there a certain time everyone comes together and dives in or is it just when have our regular personal bible study time? Looking forward to hearing everyone feedback!
excited to know more about the truth :)
JONAH in the middle of LENT!
What a blessing after the last 12 days in "Fasting" … on to Repentance, Meditation and Confession??? or have we already covered these topics in those first 12 days???
Seems to me, Jonah is much more than a big fish tale! Can't wait as you share this one!
Thanks SRT for this wonderful site, Reading and now Sharing God's Truth each day! Love the camaraderie of sisters in this commUnity (I agree with Kat!)
Blessings and prayers for you all,
Peggy
I have learned so much from my study of this book in the past and can't wait to take a fresh look at it. I love studying God's Word with you ladies.
I have never read the book of Jonah before so I am very excited to explore new territory! I will have to follow Kat's example from above and read through it before tomorrow :)
Liane, you are in for a treat…..see you tomorrow…..Blessings. x
Blessings over your reading today!
I have never read the book of Jonah either but am also excited to learn what truths it holds for us. I also will be reading through it today in preparation for this study. I am so grateful for the srt staff for all the time spent in bringing these studies to us. Thank You SRT!
I read through Jonah this morning after seeing that it would be our next study. As I had (yet another!) snow day today, I was able to really spend time in it on my own, soaking in what I thought I could before we start our own study. So much is packed into these four chapters – I can't wait to see the Truths revealed over these next two weeks! Thank you to my sisters in this community – not only the writers but also the readers – for providing such rich depths & insights to Scripture.
YESSS! I love the book of Jonah! And it so often overlooked! Can not wait! <3 Thanks She Reads Truth AGAIN!! For such great devotionals. You're hard work does not go unnoticed! *hugs* (been reading these for over a year, I say we reached the stage in our relationship hugs should be given haha)
Agreed! Hugs back to you. xo
I am SO EXCITED about this study! This summer, I worked for SpringHill Day Camps in Michigan, and the curriculum that I taught to my campers on a weekly basis included the story of Jonah! It was one of my favorite bible stories to teach these children, who were Kindergartners – 5th grade. Each week when I taught this lesson, I was amazed at the things my campers told me! I'm just…I'm really excited! :) I love that you can know the ins and outs or a bible story and STILL learn something new from it each time you read it.
This is such a GOD thing! I'm in a Celebrate Recovery step study. Last night I shared that I wanted to stop running away from people….God has put people in my life through this program that I would never have befriended…like Nineveh. but He is doing a work in my heart and my family that I am so grateful for. I've spent some time in "the belly of a big fish" …and….then after being spit out so to speak….and saying….ok God…wow…#SHEREADSTRUTH. Study of Jonah…Amazing!
Yay! I'm excited! Girls, please pray for me, that God would "rescue us (me) from the hand of our (my) enemies, and that He would "enable us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before him all our days." (Luke 1:74-75). I woke up rushed, feeling condemned, guilty, and flustered.
AnnaLee, you have encouraged me in your encouragement of others as I've been reading in the comments section over the past few weeks. May you be encouraged today to be still and rest in the God Who Hears, the God Who Sees. May there be no confusion in your day. As a daughter of the King, there is no condemnation upon you. May He give you wisdom in your dealing with others and in the ability to recognize what to take to heart and what to let go. May He speak to you in myriad different and unexpected ways today. In Jesus' Name.
Praying for you!
Praying for you friend – hope your day was blessed?……..
It was blessed. :)Thank you so much sisters. I'm so blessed to be in this wonderful community of women. Praise God.
Just did a short Jonah study with my kids two weeks ago, thinking about how much deeper I wanted to get into that Bible book. Perfect timing. :)
Ohhh – can’t wait! Love this book too. Not just a fish story. :)
