Trudi talks about an often misunderstood and difficult part of Yahweh’s description of Himself.
However, Tim didn’t hit the record button soon enough, so we join this, in progress. Here’s the transcription of what Trudi said before the recording began…
[Reading from Exodus 34:6-7] And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “Yahweh, Yahweh, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness, maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.”
We’ve been going through these verses in Exodus 34 where God, for the first time, says His name and then describes His character. Here Yahweh is choosing words to best describe Himself In two short verses.
We’ve looked at His compassion and grace. We’ve explored how God does get angry, but He is slow to anger. It’s always for a purpose birthed out of His unfailing love. Last week Tim gave us a deep dive into hesed and emet, His love and faithfulness. I don’t know about you, but I have learned so much in this series, but we aren’t finished.
This week we get to the end part of the verse that can leave people scratching their head, or they just skip it. It’s been all nice up to this point with compassion and grace and love and now He’s punishing kids! What’s up with that? How do both of those things exist? Often we want to ignore what we don’t understand.[END TRANSCRIPT]

We end the story of Jonah the same way God did...with some hard questions, and a bonus comment on the "sign of Jonah."
Do you know how much God cares about people who are far away from him? Jonah finds out, and he doesn't like it.
Jonah finally makes it to Ninevah, and, once again, the pagans prove to hear God better than the man of God.
Trudi continues the series, with look at the severe mercy and grace which Jonah experiences.
Rachel Porter talks about the questions of identity Jonah faced and how they still face us today.
Jonah and the Big Fish (or Whale, depending on your era). That's how most people have learned about Jonah. Because of the imagery of a man living in the belly of a Big Fish, it is usually one of the early Bible stories for kids. That's unfortunate, because that's NOT what this Bible book is about.
