Lessons from Jonah’s heathen sailors
I’m glad you shared this with my Ryan. This is a power and personal look at Jonah 1. I loved this quote:
“You might think that because you don’t have a golden calf statue in your living room, Old Testament warnings about idols don’t apply to you.
But most of the idols of antiquity revolved around food, economy, power, and sex.
These are the same altars we still find ourselves bowing to today.
Thank you Matt! I look forward to engaging with you more.

Hit submit early. I look forward to reading more of what you write, Ryan.
My sea story is porn and pot. Fought, succumbed, fought, succumbed. Prayed and prayed. Fought, succumbed, over and over. For years.
But then, one day, I said in a prayer, I commit myself to You God. Use me as You see fit.
Porn and pot vanished immediately. Never had the desire for either again.
Hallelujah praise the LORD. :)
Praise God for redemption and new life!
