The Prayers of Jonah

Jonah is one of the better known prophets of the Old Testament, but he is not generally well known for his prayers; he is well known, however, for his disobedience to the calling of God and the resulting three days and nights in the belly of a great fish. It was this judgment and it’s impact on Jonah that prompted this book on Jonah’s prayers.

Prayer is an important part of the Christian life and, through his unique circumstances, the prayers of Jonah offer us some insight into prayer and its purpose in a believer’s life.
