God gives Jonah a job
One day, God spoke to a man named Jonah.
"Jonah, go to the big city of Nineveh. The people there are doing bad things. Tell them to STOP and turn back to me."
This was a HUGE job. Nineveh was far away. The people there were enemies of Jonah's people. Jonah did NOT want to go.
God calls each of us to do brave things too. Sometimes scary things. Sometimes things we do not want to do.
