What happens when God asks you to do something—and you run the other way?
In Part 2 of our study through the book of Jonah, Reagan Kramer dives into Jonah 1 and the powerful story of a prophet who heard directly from God but chose to go in the opposite direction. As Jonah boards a ship for Tarshish, a violent storm reveals something deeper: we cannot escape God’s purposes, and our disobedience can affect the people around us.
Reagan explores the sovereignty of God, human free will, spiritual warfare, salvation by grace through faith, and the difference between following God’s leading and trying to live life in our own strength. She also examines the fascinating biblical practice of casting lots and why, after Pentecost, believers have the Holy Spirit to lead, guide, and give wisdom.
Most importantly, this episode challenges us to look honestly at our own lives. Where might God be asking you to obey, but you are hesitating, hiding, or going the opposite direction? Reagan shares personal stories of moments when the Holy Spirit prompted her to reach out, encourage someone, or share what God had placed on her heart—and the unexpected blessing that came through obedience.
In this episode:
Reflection question:
Where have you made it all about yourself and potentially missed the blessing God has called you to be a part of?
How long are you going to say no to God? What consequences will you face?
Have you thanked God for His mercy and grace over your life?
Get your Bible, read Jonah 1, and join Reagan as we continue uncovering the revelation, freedom, and wisdom found in God’s Word.
